Wow, all these years later, Terry, miss you and still think of you, especially when playing games, recalling our get togethers (you Chuck, kids) for cards, board games. Such a fun person to do stuff with, Bobbi loved and missed her much too while she was alive before she passed in December of '22. I'll always love the memory of my friend Terry a true gem of a person.

I remember Terry every year when at Christmastime I place the beautiful ornament that she gave me on our tree and at other random times like today when I see from my 2010 calendar that we had lunch together on July 14. Terry was a tremendous friend and assistant when I led Jazzercise classes in Portage Lakes. I am missing her right now as I´m sure you do every day. Her legacy of kindness lives on and on. God bless all of you.

Chuck, Casie, Chase and Stacy .. Terry was so special to David and I. She was a wonderful friend and confidante, and was always there when needed. We are going to miss her madly, but we know God has a greater plan for her now. May he enfold you all in His arms and fill you with good memories and love. We are here when you need us at any time, day or night. We love you all.

Terry was a great friend and co-worker and I will always remember all the laughs we had at work and at game club. Her grandbaby will be hearing lots of wonderful stories about her grandma in years to come. I feel so bad I am not in town to attend the services.

Terry was a friend of mine from my BDB days. She loved her family dearly. She was a fabulous and wonderful person and she will be greatly missed. I know without a doubt that she is dancing today with her Lord and is living out the promise that He made to her the day she accepted Him into her heart and life. I pray that God will comfort your hearts and that you will feel His love in amazing ways throughout the days ahead. God bless.

Dear Chuck, Chase, Stacy and Casey - our hearts are breaking for you all! Terry was a great woman - always had a warm and friendly way about her. Though we never understand why we have to be seperated from our loved ones too soon, the promise that Terry is now walking the street of Gold with our Heavenly Father gives us comfort. Terry will be greatly missed! Love,
