Dear Rob and Bryan, Words cannot express how much I am already missing my dear friend and cousin, Terry Lee. She was the closest thing I have ever had to a sister and always felt that we were much more than just cousins. Over the years we shared so much. Happy times, laughter, joy, sadness and tears. I always knew during difficult times that she was there for me and I hope she knew I was always there to support her. One of my favorite memories was of the two of us "grounding" a jetski in the Chesapeake Bay. We laughed so hard we weren't sure we would be able to get it off the sandbar and on our way. Eventually, we did, but the laughter continued for hours after, and then again when ever we spoke of it. Your Mom and I often spoke of how we were both blessed by the Lord with sons. Your mother was a very proud lady, and had many reasons to be so. But first and foremost, she was proud of being the mother of two such wonderful young men. Hold your memories of her close, she will be with your forever.
Love, Cindy
