Not sure what to say?

I loved Terry more than air.

Terry, Of course, I am missing you. Miss working with you for children, sharing music, art, humor and always such great discussions! Times have changed...your voice for good is missed. Sending love to your daughter, grandchildren, family and friends; and knowing we all carry our memories with you. ...Nancy Klein

Terry...a loving friend and mentor to all!

Always thinking of you. Wishing we could talk!
You always brought wisdom, humor, calm and hope to our conversations!
You continue to make the world a better place.
"There is a season for everything"
Your spirit and energy...always with me.

I think about Terry often, and miss her a great deal. She influenced my entire life.

Five years have passed without her, and I still miss Terry every day. I could (and did) tell her anything. Whenever I hear from Laurie or Rick, I like to think that she would be so proud of her children and grandchildren, who are such wonderful human beings.

Terry, a loyal beloved friend, quiet but fierce and steady champion for children and families, teacher, adventurer and master of music and the arts. Your friendship and humor are missed and I will always remember our times together in friendship and work to improve children's lives. Missing you. Nancy Klein

As a long time member of the "Senior Circle" at Main Street Arts, Terry's arrival for the summer was always eagerly anticipated by the group and her departure in the fall left an empty place. She made her mark in our little village, and from the obituary it is pretty clear that she affected many more lives. She was an intelligent and gentle soul and I am so glad to have known her. My sympathy goes out to you all. Love, Mary

Terry was, for me, the role model in her generation of our family, the independent woman who made her life what she wanted it to be and lived it on her own terms while remaining lovingly connected with her family. She was supportive but didn't suffer fools gladly. I will truly miss her.

Terry was a very special woman, loving, nonjudgmental, always with a smile and a good ear for music and for listening. She made our world brighter and her light will be missed.
