Happy heavenly birthday Terri. Terri and I were friends since the 9th grade. We used to hang out when we were young, go to concerts, the mall and have fun. When you are young you never really sit down and talk. It's all about just hanging out and having fun. As we got older, especially the year before Terri passed, we became better friends almost like sisters. I really miss her. We used to talk for hours. I am so thankful that we were able to talk and say our goodbyes a couple days before she passed.

I met Terri online 23 years ago. She had lost her cat and I had lost my dog. We never met in person but we remained friends all those years. We would talk by email and then by facebook. I will miss you Terri.
