Terry loved life and lived each day to her fullest. She traveled the world and had a thousand adventures. She touched so many lives in her own unique, loving and special way. She loved to travel and her home was filled with many photos -- a testament to her zest for life and many memories she helped create and share with those she loved.

She opened her heart and life to many people along her journey. Although some visits were brief, she managed to fill each minute of every hour with joy and laughter. Quality of life was of the utmost importance to her. We are all so blessed to have been touched by her presence in our lives. Her bubbly, intelligent, caring spirit and smile will be missed by all who knew her -- always!
