Teresa Ann "Terri" Baer

Terri was such an inspiration. It amazed me of how long her and Bill were missionaries. I remember the day they went before the Church so we could pray for her and Bill as they went to Chili as missionaries.

Oh Bill, I am so sorry for such a great loss. I have memories of meaningful talks with you and Terri. A wonderful beautiful lady. I always loved when you guys always came home from the mission field and would share such fascinating stories. I also remember when you and Terri went forward at Parsons Baptist Church saying God has called you two out to the mission field. So amazing. Terri was such a loving person and she loved with her heart to so many. What a privilege and honor to have known Terri. God be with you Bill and your family as you transition toward a different journey in life.

I was saddened to hear of Terri´s passing on one hand because I know this is such a deep loss for your family. On the other hand, though, I can just see Terri basking in the light and loving presence of our Savior. She´s probably met half of heaven´s population by now, joining them in singing God´s praises! I was so blessed to be part of the team in Paraguay when Bill and Terri led our team. They were very caring team leaders, were excellent missionaries, and caring friends. Our two sons, who were young boys at that time, loved Terri and Bill, as they took time to show a genuine interest in them. Terri even babysat them on a few occasions. They have been faithful to send us birthday greetings each year, which has been so sweet, thoughtful, and much appreciated!!
I will always remember Terri as being such an effective, passionate witness for our Lord. She didn´t meet a stranger, was so gracious, and her love for and deep walk with Jesus overflowed to others around her. She was a caring friend as well! I loved her and will miss knowing that she´s still praying for us. I´m praying for our Lord´s comfort as only He can give, and trusting Him to fill the void here on earth that Terri left with His peace, and a great awareness of His presence. With much love for your family, Lori Starkey (and family)

Bill, our hearts go out to you in this time of loss. We will always remember and appreciate your ministry among us in Paraguay. May our Lord bless you in these days.

Terri was a wonderful youth leader while I was in high school. She was a bus captain for awhile at Parson Baptist Church, she and Bill were a great team.Terri´s witness and her life was a big influence to me.

Terri and I have been wonderfully influenced and blessed to know the Baer´s over the years. We grieve with Bill and the children and yet rejoice in Terri´s unspeakable joy today. May God bring you all His peace and comfort.

No words. Still wrapping our heads around this. But what we know for certain is Terri is with our Lord...face to face. Oh Bill, we love you all. We treasure the friendship we have had but most of all that we are all members of the same family... God's richest blessings of comfort on all of you.

Our condolences to Bill and the family. Our prayers and thoughts are with you in this time of loss. May God grant you peace. We are assured of seeing her again. Praise Almighty God.

Bill, my prayers are with you and your family. You all have been a big blessing to me when Louanna died. I have an idea of how hard this is for you right now. Knowing and expecting a dear loved one´s passing is one thing, but the time after it happens is quite another. Knowing she is with the Father helps, but it doesn´t take away the pain. I now say that Louanna´s most joyous day was my most painful day. Prayers.

I remember you well at Parsons Baptist church. I am sorry for our loss but joyous for where you are now, in the arms of Jesus.

I am so sorry for her family and friends left here. But I am so happy for Terri because without a doubt she is sitting at Jesus´s feet worshiping and adoring Him. I´m sure he greeted her with "Well done my good and faithful servant.
Memories of her have flooded my mind these last few days.
When you put together the photos please include one of when she had the long red braids.
Until we meet again.

I am very sorry to learn of Terri's passing. We were in HS together and were both active in the Drama Club. I have always remembered her fondly from the plays we were both in. I lost track of her when I entered the Marines. Fair winds and following seas my friend.

Everyone who knew Terri loved her in junior high and high school (when I knew her). She was always smiling and cheerful. This world needs more Terri's ...

Best friend ever. My heart is broken. God Bless Bill and family.
