    We were so sad to hear of Aunt Terry’s passing. It was absolutely wonderful to visit with her and Sue last March in Arizona at our son Jeff’s house. She was such a character and so full of spirit and life at that time. She was blessed to have such a loving, caring family to be there for her all these years. I know that meant the world to her. The joyous part of her passing is that she is now with Larry and Tom in Heaven. Take care.

    Pat

    Sue, Dick and Family,

    What can I say, you know how very sorry we are. You and I have been blessed to have been able to spend the last hours with our Moms. We will always have wonderful memories that no one can ever take away. Know I am always here for you, just like you have always been there for me. We love you guys. Please give our love to Janice, Larry and families.

    Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in heaven, where the love of our lost ones shines down to let us know they are with us.

    Not a day goes by that I haven’t thought of our last conversation.
    Love you Nana…

    I have absolutely no doubt your angel wings are covered with diamond dust–and beautiful–just like you. I’ll always carry in my heart the delightful memory of the Sedona trip Susan and I took with our beloved moms. We were both blessed with the best.
    Rest in His Peace beautiful lady.

    Marsha and Kevin

    Dear Larry, Sue, and Janette and families
    I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. I have special memories of my Aunt Terry–she calmed me down when I was five years old and afraid of the rain. She told me it wouldn’t hurt me! Such wonderful common sense, I stopped crying! She also gave me a little gold compact, I kept for years. I remember her as a wonderful, cheerful Aunt in my life. Blessings now for all of you during this hard time. Kris

    I never met anyone quite like Aunt Terry. One of the most exuberant and supportive fans I ever spectated with. Quite the renisance woman with such love and pizazz for life.

    Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

    Please accept our deepest sympathy.

    Beth Ann & Grant
