I am so sorry for your lost. Teri was my boss at Priceless Kids and was wonderful to work for. She meant a lot to me. She had written myself and another friend a letter and said she considerd us her "children". She was very thoughtful and will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. I worked with Teri for as short time at IKON and really enjoyed her humor (and M&Ms!). I will always smile when I think of her. I am truly sorry for your loss.

It was with heartfelt sadness that I learned of Teri passing. Teri and I worked so well together on the hardware support for the URMC from IKON/VITEC for several years. We spent many pleasant quick chats on the phone, confirming ticket information. She was very dedicated and I could always rely on her having everything assigned, or finding the tickets that didn't get assigned. She was a very pleasant person to work with. I shall miss her. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Terri's family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I was very surprised to hear that Terri was so sick and very sad at the news that she had passed. I was her manager for several years at IKON and then VITEC. She was a great worker and always very dependable.
Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Mary & Tony,

I am so sorry for your loss. I had the brief pleasure of sitting in the cubical next to Terri. She was a great person & I shall truly miss her. She was always a source of help when I needed it.

God Saw You...
by Adam Males

God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be.
So He wrapped his arms around you,
And whispered, "Come to me."
You didn't deserve what you went through,
So He gave you rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best.
And when I saw you sleeping,
So peaceful and free from pain,
I could not wish you back
To suffer that again.

Rest in peace, Teri. We love you. The Dotys

To Teri's Family,
I'm so very sorry for your loss! I was fortunate enough to get to know Teri in the last five years. She had some wonderful attributes: smart, spunky, hardworking, great baker and always dressed to a tee. I will truly miss her. Your family will be in my prayers!
