Teri Trayman Obituary

On July 8, 2009, Teri E. Trayman, 91, of Greensboro, N.C., left to be with God. Her life was one of strength and love. Teri's strength came as a daughter of a Rabbi who gave her a rich Polish and Jewish heritage that helped her become a Holocaust survivor. Her love gave strength to us all and she will forever be missed. Teri is survived by son-in-law, Samuel Woods; daughter, Lili Rysz; grandchildren, Lara Lang and Alicia Woods; and greatgrandchild, Donovan Lang. Funeral services will be held graveside at Beth Israel Cemetery 11 a.m. on Friday, July 10, 2009. Memorials sent to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, www.ushmm.org. Arrangements by Oakey's Roanoke Chapel, 540-982-2100.

I am so deeply sorry for the loss of Teri. She was a fiesty, independent and caring person who made an impression on those she encountered. I am happy I had the opportunity to meet her and know the love she had for you all. She is now in the loving care of her husband, Sam, and your wife, mother and grandmother, Beatrice. May her loving spirit remain with you always. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. With love and God's peace.
