Terri was my cousin by marriage but unfortunately we didn't live close to each other so we didn't know each other well. However, when I heard of her illness I began to pray for her regularly. She was a strong and determined person from what I heard from the family. I consider myself very fortunate to have had her in my life through prayer. To the Morgans and the Pratts, I am so sorry for your loss. You're in my prayers. One day we'll all be together in Heaven and have a great family reunion. Love, Linda
