Toni and Curtis I´m so sorry for your loss! I worked with Terri at Whitten Center and with Jackie at Wesley Commons! My thoughts and prayers are with you and her family!

Teri was a very quiet, calm, hardworking nurse that molded her career after her mother who was an RN. She always had a smile, and her first priority was her consumers.
I worked with Teri her entire career and she was always the same professional
nurse day in and day out-ready to do whatever necessary as a traditional nurse and friend to her consumers--she made a difference.
She will be missed by staff, consumers, and friends.
