Dear Fred and family, I am truly deeply sorry for your loss. I am extremely grateful for having the opportunity to become a close friend as we shared so many great moments together. I miss her more than words can say. She was a consummate gracious lady with love and compassion for everyone! She loved the Catholic Daughters and we loved her! I will miss our times together but I know she will be watching over us. Please find comfort in the love you shared and the lasting memories you made! She will always be with us in our hearts and mind!
Please accept our sincere condolences. The loss is profound… for your family and for our parish family as well… Terry will be sorely missed by all. Our love and prayers to you, Fred, and to your family… Ellen & Neal (St. Mark’s church)…..
I WAS SO SADDENED WHEN I HEARD ABOUT TERRY’S PASSING. SHE WAS MY FRIEND AND I LOVED HER. TERRY WAS MY ANGEL WHEN WE WORKED TOGETHER AT VILLAGE SCHOOL. NOW SHE IS MY ANGEL IN HEAVEN. I WILL TRULY MISS HER.
