Terry will always be a lighthouse to our entire family. We were all blessed with her presence and continue to be inspired by all of her unquestionable love.

I met Terry when I married her nephew Frank and have loved her ever since. When our boys were little we spent a few Christmases at Aunt Terry´s house. She loved having our boys in her house. Frank and I visited Aunt Terry a year ago and she was a trooper in spite of health issues. She´s gone home to Jesus whom she loved so much!
