Hello to all family members you have my Sincere Condolences for your lost of a wonderful lady. Mrs. Terry will never be Forgotten . I met her in September of 1994. When she told me she met 6 beautiful children at a Dcfs Shelter July 27th 1993, please understand this tore her heart apart to the point she Quit the Job. I was in tears when I found out July 10th 2023 she passed away on Christmas day last year. It's sad the illinois Department of Children and Family Services has not even given your family respect or Condolences nor even told the Media of this lost of a loving caring woman when it came to this great loss.
