Thank You Again, Sweet Friend. I will NEVER FORGET what you and Vicki did for Linda and me......NEVER.

I was given a Gift, the Gift of Terri. My poor wife, Linda was dying. Terri took over with Vicki and held a benefit for her, raising much needed cash. She only required my and Linda´s thanks which, if not for Terri, the benefit would not have taken place. Linda passed a few days later and Terri was firmly in her heart. I will never forget Terri. You passed while I was living in Colorado. I still see you in your pontoon on Lake Braemar and I´m waving back...Rest in Peace Sweet Friend.

My Magical Christmas Eve Memories of Terri will stay in my heart forever. We watched for Santa out the big Picture Window while it Snowed. Opened our gifts of PJ's together! We' were so excited to wear them, and wake up Christmas Morning in them! Terri, I wil miss you, and your laugh. You have left warm and happy memories in my soul.

Terri was a blingy ( we say that with such fun memories of her fantastic outfits and style), bright, warm, wonderful part of our day each time we had the pleasure of seeing her in our office! Her beauty was visible on the outside, but it was the beautiful person she was on the inside that will be so sadly missed.

To the entire Yovich family; a person may die yet not only live on in others, but give them life, and not only life but that great consciousness of life. Not everyone gives that gift. Terri will.

I didn't know Terri for very long but, she was the kind of person that always made you feel like an old friend. I'm a better person for being blessed with meeting Terri and her family. The entire Yovich family is the definition of kindness. I will cherish every conversation, every tear and every laugh we shared. Heaven has gained one hell of a beautiful, feisty angel. You will be missed. All my love to the family.

A beautiful example of what a loving and giving mom should be. Emensley proud of her girls and family, her caring soul has left all who knew her too soon. We have fond memories of the Yovich family and loved when they came north to their cottage on Lake Huron in Cheboygan. Terri's spirit will carry on forever in her beautiful daughters and we feel lucky to have shared some time with her. I'm certain that mother Yovich will be overseeing from above and guiding her family to be the next generation of kind and wonderful humans. She will be missed by all her knew her.

To Terri's family: our deepest condolences. Those words seem so very inadequate at a time like this but they are truly heartfelt. We will always remember that sweet blonde-headed neighborgirl who lived next door on Cramlane in Clarkston and was best friends all through school with our daughter, Connie. It's easy to understand why she was loved by so many.
