I'll never forget 20 years ago on a trip to San Francisco when a button broke on my shirt and she would not sew it for me! But she was willing to teach me how to do it myself. Which she did. That was Terri. We'll miss you! Chris
I knew you in the beginning... I knew you in the end.
my memories of terri span at least 20 years now so there are alot!!! what can i say about a person who never had a cross word to say about anyone and always saw the bright side of every situation? her kindness along with her loving and optimistic nature never wavered for a second. she touched so many lives and i have met the most amazing people thru terri who are my good friends to this day. she loved her dog bonzai more than life itself. every time i talked to her by phone she would be out walking him and commenting on how beautiful the day was. she loved la jolla, everything about it. i would come visit her often and that is where we would go and that is where we would stay. sure we went to some great parties all over LA, orange county and san diego over the years but my favorite times with terri were our walks by the ocean and down the streets of la jolla where the local merchants knew terri & bonzai...they always had a treat for him and if you tried to sneak by a store that bonzai knew had a treat he would put the brakes on & make you stop!!! she was always treated with the utmost respect, generousity and kindness by everyone who knew her and i was only too happy to be along for the ride....and i will miss those mornings making breakfast together and talking about our evening out the night before. she could make you laugh till your sides ached. i will miss our talks about life, God and the meaning of it all...i know she is smiling her beautiful smile from heaven telling us it's ok and that she's in a better place....but i can't help it...i am selfish...i was not ready to let her go yet and want her here with me......i love you terri, will treasure our friendship forever and know we will meet again....
A bright star has been extinguished....I was priviledged to know Terri near the very end...she made me laugh and reminded of a shooting star rushing through the universe wringing the last bit of life out of everyday. My life is better because she was in it for a brief time.
