Pat is missed by all her family. She was a special lady who was so interested in Owens-Burke family history, and she shared her knowledge with others.
We hold you in our hearts, Pat.

Terry was a special cousin, always a delightful conversationalist, with knowledgeable comments which often were followed by sensitive and witty comments! She had the gift of bearing her multiple health problems without complaint, and was generous and caring. Her nuclear family were especially close and supportive of one another.

Terry appreciated the gift of God's world and her fascination with photography enabled her to share this perspective with others, We are grateful to have had her as a cousin, and she will be greatly missed.

Condolences to her family, especially to her dear mother and to her sister, Patricia, with whom she shared a bond known only by twins. Her sisters, Margaret and Pam, and her brother, Tim, along with nieces, nephews and cousins mourn her untimely death. We are grateful for the gift of having had Terry in our family, and she will be remembered with love.
