Mom,

It's been two weeks now that you have been gone and I miss you so much that words cant even describe how I'm feeling. I think this will be first Thanksgiving ever that we havent been together, and I never got your recipe for the dressing!!! I love you Mom.

My Dear Terri,  I will never forget the last day we were together,  just hours before you passed away.You were so very ill, but through your mask you said" what's up?'  I started to tell you what I was doing and you said" NO. what's up with Nicholas?"
Even in the end you were thinking of others.  I was so touched.
You were a dear and very wise friend.   I miss you very much.

RAELENE, BRIANNE, ANTHONY, BEBE, HEIDI, CHRIS AND BOP,

 

MAY IT GIVE YOU GREAT COMFORT TO KNOW HOW PROUD OF EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU TERI WAS.  IT WAS EVIDENT IN THE WAY SHE WOULD DESCRIBE ALL YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS, OR JUST TALK ABOUT YOU.  YOU WERE ALL HER JOY!

SHE WAS A SHINING STAR WHO WILL BURN FOR YEARS TO COME.

OUR DEEPEST SYMPATHY AT THE LOSS OF SUCH A SPECIAL LADY WHO TOUCHED SO MANY LIVES. 

 

 

Terri,  I will never forget you.  I did not see you often, but when I did, you always asked about my family and you truly cared about what was happening in their lives.  I really appreciated that.  You have left a stamp on my heart that will be never go away.  I will always remember you and your unconditional friendship.  Thank you for allowing me to be your friend.      

   

          WHEN YOU FEEL LONELY

When a person you love passes away
look to the night sky on a clear day.
         The star that to you, appears to you to be bright,     will be your loved one,
 Looking upon you during the night.
The lights of heaven are what shows through.
As your loved one watches all that you do.
When you feel lonely for the one that you love,
Look to the HEAVENS in the night sky above.
    

          WE ALL MISS YOU SO MUCH AND YOU WILL
                 ALWAYS BE IN OUR THOUGHTS.

My friend was loyal and I will miss her very much. Wherever I end up I hope she will be there, if not perhaps she will have her cell phone handy and will be able to call me. A hui hou (see you soon) Terri, Aloha, Shirlee

Terri, you will be missed by all of your daughters and their families. You were loved so much. Neal and I were happy when you welcomed us into your family. We loved you.

Mom,This has been the hardest thing I have ever had to do in my life, but in my heart I know that you will be much better off. Your spirit will live inside me forever, as it will in my son. Words will never be able to express how I feel about the love and guidence you gave to Chris from the day he was born, you have always been his favorite. Not one day will go by that I wont think about you and remember the life you gave me. I LOVE YOU MOM.

Mothers are truly a gift. They come in different styles and shapes, but one thing they all have in common is the warmth of their hand on your cheek when your ill or just feeling down.  Their there to guide and correct an Terri sure could do that. It's evident in the children she raised along with her g-kids.  You've left your mark on so many Terri and with great fondness you will be rememberd, always.

TERI YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN OUR HEARTS, WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU AND WE LOVE YOU VERY MUCH,YOU'VE BEEN A GREAT FRIEND AND ONE HELL OF A POKER PLAYER, EVERY TIME I PLAY I WILL PLAY ONE ROUND FOR YOU.
