"We are so sorry for your loss. The death of a love one can be extremely difficult to cope with. Many have found comfort through the promises found there in Gods word the Bible especially the promises found there at 1Cor.15:26 and Acts 24:15. The Bible repeatedly speaks about the elimination of death and a time when we will see our love ones again. Take comfort in those verses mentioned earlier and do know our prayers are with you during this difficult time...Mary Ann"

"Terri was a very giving person of her time and talents. She helped start programs in the community and schools. I had the opportunity to work with her throughout our children's school years and through that became friends!! That friendship lasted 20 years!! She was a very kind and compassionate person and full of love! I will cherish our friendship all the memories of years of working together and raising our children. She was a person who was full of life and loved to have a good time!!! With that I can say Terri you are now free and in a place where I know you have the dance floor swinging the wine pouring and the tables full of people having a good time!!! I love you and will forever miss you my good friend!!!!! Wendy. Vorst"
