"The Boys", Orin and Fred, are surviving friends, along with Robert Hall (Bama), and others too numerous to name. Each knows the special place held in Terry's heart.
Terry is known for her generous heart and spirit, her quick wit and dry sense of humor. She loved birds, flowers, antiques and collectables, nice jewelry, and fishing. Terry had worked in medical settings, perfect places for her compassionate heart. She provided care to many of us during illness or after surgery. It never mattered how unpleasant the task might be; she'd do it. Terry was also a gifted, creative floral designer.
A celebration of Terry's life is set for Wednesday, May 23,2012 at 2 p.m., at Redeemer's Fellowship, 3031 W. Harvard, in Roseburg, Oregon. There will be time after to connect with family and friends. Our Lord, Jesus Christ, is Terry's Savior. She's gone Home.
