Terry was such a dear and precious Godly friend and neighbor. She was always willing to pray for others and help in any way. I count it an honor God allowed me to know and love her for so many years. She will be missed.. Heaven continues to grow sweeter everyday. I will always love her. Thank you for touching my life Terry. My love and prayers to all the family.
I was saddened to see Terry’s Obituary this morning. Condolences go out to her family.
Will be dearly missed, God just got another angel.
Terry was such a very special person. I was privileged to know her and work with her. Such a giving and caring person. She was a godly lady and always open with her spiritual belief. So refreshing to think of her and the wonderful person I will always remember. I am so sorry she is no longer with us here on earth and send my sympathy to the family.
