I meet Terry years ago at a horse show and was taken back, by all the thing she could do. And all the things she would do. I'm very proud that I was one of the lucky ones, that was blessed to know Terry. A woman that touched more than lives she touch our hearts. I will miss you, until we meet again.

Words cannot express the emptiness in my heart upon losing "Turkey," one of my oldest and dearest friends. Sharing the years of happiness and heartbreak with each other, I'll never forget her and her family. My love to all.

As I read the article in the local paper in Magnolia, I could not even imagine the deep hurt that this family is going through. What an incredible woman, Terry was. She brightened the world of my cousin, Lonnie and blessed us all with her written words. My mind contains many words I would like to say to this family, but my heart knows that there are no comforting words for such a loss.

I was fortunate enough to meet Terry through her cousin, Kim Carrington, as she worked on her book. She was such a sunny personality and a pleasure to talk with. My deepest sympathies go out to her family and friends.

Does a hole in one's heart make it lighter or heavier? I don't yet know, but Terry's sudden departure has sure left a big one in mine. My never-ending love to her family, and of course to Terry.

What a tragic loss, but she has gone to be with her beloved Lonnie. We will miss her gracious humor and love of life. She has been a great example of grace and perseverance, to me.
