Gina,Lisa,Nicky,and Karl,
My heart is filled with pain and sadness for each and every one of you. It’s always hard to lose a loved one but,when that loved one is as special as Terry was it’s truly a hard pill to swallow. The Terry I will always remember was a kind,caring human being and at the same time one bad ass chick. She was just as beautiful on the inside as she was on the outside I know she will be missed. The world lost one of the good ones you should all be proud to have been a part of her life. My thoughts are with each of you take care of one another and yourselves as well.

My heart goes out to my neice Amy and my nephew Rod and their siblings l never met for the loss of their mom,also for all family members.lm so sorry for your loss.This amazing woman had to be both mother and father to her children when my brother Gary sadly passed away in 1981 and had to leave his loving family behind.She has fought long hard battles with her health for years and God saw her through but he saw that she had suffered long enough and brought her home to be free of all her pain and suffering .lm sure leaving her family behind was the only thing on her mind when she left this world.She is loved by many and will be missed.I know she left behind a loving husband but l know Gary was waiting for her with open arms and a shining smile..I love you all and l send all my love and prayers for God to wrap you all in his loving arms and give you comfort ..peace a nd strenghth to endure the days ahead.LOVE..AUNT LINDA

I am so sorry to all of the family for your very sad loss. I met Terry when I was 15 years old. Terry, Gina, me, and several Cohn High School girls worked for Hardee’s. A few years later in our 20s I was lucky enough to become good friends with Terry. We hung out together and played on the Trolley women’s pool league for several years. She was a great team player, but a dreaded opponent. When we played each other she usually beat me. . LOL
Anytime that I went to Terry’s house just to visit, she would be cleaning and vacuuming. She was a heck of a housekeeper. No matter what she was doing she made me feel welcome. Through out the years we have not seen each other as much, but I have thought of her often. Terry was a special lady and a true friend. I know that she made everyone feel welcome no matter if it was at her house or any of the places that she worked as a bartender. I will always remember her big pretty eyes and happy smile. Rest in peace Terry and know that you are loved.

Terry was a dear friend of mine I used to love to hear her tell stories of things that we had all done together Her memory & how she could remember details amazed me Would have me doubled over laughing She could also remember the words to just about any song I told her she should have been on Name that Tune Always so much fun to go out with Get Gina with us & double the fun She was also very good at her job Let her change jobs & the customers followed her.She looked beautiful tonight & so at peace I remember a couple of yrs ago she told me she was worried nobody would show up for her funeral I sure hope somehow she knew about today I couldn’t hardly find a place to park The place was packed! Everyone that knew her loved her
