Terry was a classmate of mine at Centre, and because Centre was so small, everyone had a nodding acquaintance with everyone on campus. However, Terry stood out from amongst her peers. Her great toothy smile, sense of fun, and unrestrained laughter drew people to her. Her natural physical beauty notwithstanding, it was her unassuming sweetness and innate goodness that made her memorable. Although regrettably I was not one of her close friends at Centre, I liked her immensely and respected her integrity and intelligence. I can only imagine how keenly her family and close friends must feel the loss of her sunshine.

I knew Terry in high school in Virginia and had just recently reconnected with her twin sister. I was so hoping to reconnect with Terry again, too. It will have to wait until heaven, and so glad to know she had a vibrant faith.

We were blessed to have the Pomeroys as neighbors for many years in Willow Creek. Our prayers are with you in your loss. She was a joy and inspiration to us all. She had a smile for everyone and a special word of faith. We'll miss her, but it is a comfort to know that we will see her again. God bless you Bob, Scott and Mark and your whole family.

Terry was such joy to know. She was full of love, energy and such a faithful Godly woman. I had the pleasure of calling Terry my friend and co-owning and co-directing a preschool with her. What fun years those were. I know how much Terry's family meant to her and all of you will be in my prayers. Terry , we will miss you but I know where you are. You are in your glorious eternal home with Jesus and I look forward to seeing you again. ❤

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. It is so hard to have such a bright light taken from your life in such a sudden instant. Terry touched so many people in her life. She will be missed.
