Some people come into our lives, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never the same. Terry you are and will always be truly missed.

Always a special soul. No matter how much she had to deal with in her short time here, she always held that soul true. That smile, that outlook on life. A graceful woman taken all too soon. May she be at peace, now and forever.
