Terri Nelson Obituary
Lynn was a sweetheart-kind, gentle, and possessing an innocent, loving soul. She especially enjoyed spending time with her father, watching old cowboy movies, and visiting her mother's home to spend time together with whichever sibling happened to be there.
Terri Lynn was preceded in death by her sisters, Claudia Nelson and Karen Daniels. She leaves to cherish her memory her brother, Willie George Nelson, and her sisters, Gloria Williams, Deborah Moon, Daphne Nelson, Trina Nelson, and Amanda Pettis.
Lynn leaves to cherish her memory her three sons, Donovan Nelson (Daenisha), Daron Nelson, and Kalum Goins. She was deeply loved by her grandchildren-Kanye, Da'ryiah, Darion, Dakari, Daron Jr., Ka'Nylah, and Ka'Myah-and her great-grandchild, Kahari. Lynn was affectionately known as "Nana" by her grandchildren.
She also leaves to cherish her memory a host of loving friends, nieces, and nephews.

The funeral service will immediately follow the visitation, beginning at 10:00 am.
