I saw your story on untold stories of the ER and then just had to look up your life story. You are amazing and loving so talented. I was sad to have learned you passed but picture you in heaven still nurturing the animals and playing your violin!

I realize that I’m very late with this but just read an article about Terri’s violin being purchased and restored because the purchaser pursued finding the original owner when he felt an inexplicable attraction to the instrument.
Terri and I grew up as backyard neighbors in West Miami. She was one month younger than I, and I played at her house and went to her birthday parties. In our teens we grew apart, I believe mainly because she fell in love with music and spent her afternoons practicing, practicing, practicing. We reconnected briefly on Facebook before I found out she had passed. I have fond childhood memories of Terri.

I played in the Colorado Music Festival with Terri back in the 1980s. A unique spirit and an artistic soul.

Terri was my neighbor in Longmont, CO. She owned a cute house backing up to a creek. Such an elegant lady, wore her thick straight hair in a bun. She told me stories of her career as a world- class violinist, playing with the finest elite musicians. Her address book was a Who's Who of the world's finest classical musicians. She was known for her intense love of cats. The homeless advocacy that she pursued has helped many people. In these last few years, she had several art gallery exhibits in Boulder area. Her receptions included live classical music performance as she graciously mingled with her guests. Terri, we miss your bright shining light.

My husband and I had season tickets to the CMF for 25 years and for many of those years Terri sat on the outside row entertaining us. We were saddened when she did not return one year, and even more saddened to read about her early demise. You were truly one-of-a-kind, Terri. May you rest in peace and be surrounded by those things you loved so dearly.

Sorry to hear this. I also played with Terri in Colorado Music Festival. She was a wonderful violinist, a great stand partner and a funny, creative woman -- the CMF "awards" were her creation.
