Not sure what to say?

My deepest sympathy to all of your family on the passing of Terry. We met in therapy as she was helping her husband Paul recover from his stroke. Truly a strong, wise, and endlessly cheerful person she (and Paul) were memorable for their skills and major lifetime achievements. It was my pleasure to meet them both. Special sympathy to Linda, whom I also met, on the passing of your Mom. I know you were close and you carry her loving thoughts forward.

Terry was a wonderful friend for over twenty years. She was always upbeat and made each person feel special. We will miss her as we always had wonderful times together. Our sincerest sympathy to all the family.

I knew Terry through my mother, Laura Snoey. Over the years, Terry was a great friend of my mother's and they had quite a bit of fun together. I also remember Terry for her advocacy on the Boards of the assisted living facilities in Vancouver. Terry recently helped an acquaintance of mine with her decision about whether to move to assisted living. At her age, she was still nursing--this time with good advice about a big decision. I will miss Terry and would like to send my sympathy to...

Many thanks to Terry for the loving care she provided to the many veterans who came through The V.A. Hospital in Vanc. Washington. My condolences to the family.

Terry was a valued friend to my mom, Laura Snoey, for at least two decades. We will never forget her hospitality.

If I may say to the family members. I was very touched to read her life time history in paper. I think family should get together and write a book about her life and I bet down the line there would be a movie about her. God Bless family and friends at this time. Sounded like a great lady in deed.

It was such a joy to be her nurse & to get to know Theresa, and care for her. She was truly an extraordinary woman. We will all miss her greatly.

My friend has been an inspiration to me this past 22 years. I'll miss her always.
My condolences to her family.

A great nurse, a great seamstress, and a truly great friend to my Mom for many years. She will be missed.
