To Miss Terri's family,
Miss Terry you gave me my first job at Burger King. You took me under your wing like I was your child and protected me. You showed me everything I needed to know on how to get a job and keep it. You are a great lady and for that you always have a special place in my heart. I will miss you on your journey back home to our father-GOD. I will miss your smile and wisdom as we used to sit outside at the apts and talk for hours.
Love,
DAYNAH GIST.

Family is precious and dear to us and to lose one breaks our heart you see. We know she is in a better place, for she is seeing Jesus face to face. So where do we go from here you might say, We think we should first pray; and read our Bibles to see what He has told; and to live life like Jesus has showed. In your moments of sorrow we are weeping with you. Our deepest sympathy.

Isaiah 61:3
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.
To the entire Fernandes Family:
May the Lord encourage you at this time and bring to your rememberance the good times that you have had With Auntie Theresa.
God bless you all and I will keep you in my prayers.
Respectfully,
