To Terri's Family,
Just saw this on my inactive email. We just thank God for allowing us to retrieve memories of the past good times we have spent with those we love and cherish. My memory of Terri was a young lady full of energy, kindness and a smile for all. So sorry I missed her celebration of life at Lafayette. May God's hope and love be with you all.
Prayerfully,
