Terry,
Ill always remember you as a bundle of joy! You were the
best baby, adolescent, and young adult anyone could have ever
dreamt of raising. You were an obedient and happy child.
It was a joy to watch you grow to become the most loving,
caring and kind daughter. We saw you grow physically and
spiritually into a strong and courageous woman.
You were there for your Dad and me at every beck and call.
Even during your own illness, you would ask, Why didnt
you call me? I could not help but admire your strength as you
fought your battle. You shared your wisdom and continued to
give us all advice till the end.
Terry, you were a priceless jewel and we thank God for the
gift of YOU!

Be not weary in your serving;

Do your best for those in need;
Kindness will be rewarded
By the Lord who prompts the deed. ~Anonymous
