Dear Terry, I just learned of your passing today and I am just beside myself. 2020 has just become an even more crazy year. I will cherish our early morning talks in the kitchen at work before everyone came in. You were such a classy lady and a good soul. Now you are with your two daughters. My condolences to your family as I know you will be missed. God bless always.

Dear Terry, you were a beautiful soul who was always generous with your love and time, taking great care not only of your family, but your friends and work as well. My heart ached thinking about you being gone. I'm so thankful for having known you and calling you my friend. Your energy and your compassion have always amazed me. I will always remember you, especially your laugh.
Dear Joe, I am so sorry for your loss. Terry's strong faith helped her through many tough times and I'm hopeful your strong faith, your family and your friends will help ease your pain during this time. You are in our thoughts.

Nana,
You are so important to me.
I will always remember all of the wonderful times that we spent together. All of the times going into the city, the times cooking together, having barbecues, getting dinner from Wegman's (haha) when I would stay over, every trip to New jersey, every weekend spent at your house and every trip that you came out to Utah.
You have always been there for me and supported me in everything and I am so beyond grateful to have you as my nana.
You have made the lives better of everyone you came in contact with. You will never be forgotten and will always be loved.
I have always and will always admire you. I miss you so much and hold you in my heart forever. I am glad you’re able to rest now.
My love also goes to Joe, I am always here and I love you very much.
Love forever xoxo,
Maya

Oh, so sorry to hear the news of Terri’s passing. My heartfelt condolences go to husband, Joe, and, family.
Terri, was a benevolent force at The Parish Of St.Gabriel’s , where, I came to know her. She administered Holy Eucharist Sacrament to the multitude while I crooned hymns of praise before the same, gathered, multitude. Joe was/and is an equally eloquent reader of scripture at the same mass settings. Together, their matrimony benevolently extended gifts that touched so many, thanks to their strong faith In Christ, Jesus. Lucky us, who, came in contact with such wonderful people.
Rest In Peace, Terri, but not too much, for your family still looks up to you and will appreciate your intercessions from above.
Prayers and spiritual strength be with you all.
Sincerely,
DamianMcDermott
Cantor St. Gabriel’s Parish
Marlboro, NJ

Nana,
As I sit here thinking of you, I am flooded with many memories we've shared over the course of my life... Traveling into the city to see several Broadway plays was always a treat. Watching the Sound of Music with you, which will always be a classic favorite of mine. Playing 500 Rummy and you ALWAYS somehow winning, no matter who was in the lead! I will never forget a summer the boys and I visited NJ, and the toilet overflowed in Joe's bathroom in the middle of the night. When I woke you up to tell you, we tried "fixing it" ourselves, only to somehow cause water to shoot out everywhere, soaking us both, and all we could do was laugh while we tried to stop it. Then there is the unforgettable moment at the end of my wedding, when Jordan and I had one last dance, alone in the ballroom as everyone else was asked to leave... but before we knew it, a camera flash came from around the corner because you had snuck back in to take the picture (against the rules!!! haha!).
I hope you know how much I love you. I know there's been hard times. I know there's been heartache and lots of unexpected events. But I also know God is good. God is in control, and always has been. I know eternal life is by grace alone through faith in Jesus alone, and not by anything we could ever do ourselves. I know your fierce love for your family, and that you were one of the hardest working people I've ever known. I know you were someone who always looked to help others. I want you to know how much I love and miss you. You will always been remembered and loved, and our memories will always be cherished by me. XOXO

Terry - I will miss you so much. You were a bright light that lit up every room you entered. I will never forget the twinkle in your eyes or the smile on your face. I am a better person for having known you. I wasn't ready for you to go. At least you are with your girls at last. All my love, Anne Marie

I was blessed to work with Terry for a few years in NYC. She was everything described in her obituary. A sweetheart with a warm smile, caring character and a wonderful sense of humor. To this day, Terry is one of those people who makes you smile and feel warm inside by just thinking of her. ❤ Kathryn P.

My husband John and I had the great pleasure of meeting Terry and Joe a few years ago. They joined our crazy group of friends and we enjoyed many good times together. Terry was the kindest sweetest person and had the biggest heart of anyone we have ever met. We will all miss her greatly. Love you always Terry, Arlene and John Basselini

My dear friend, Terry. Even in this terrible year of 2020 you fought so hard as you did at all times, bravely and faithfully facing every challenge. You are so loved by so many.
Now you rest in the palm of God's hand and we all have a loving friend in His Kingdom, surrounded by your loved ones and the angels who were always your beloved guardian helpers.
You will always be in our prayers, dear, loving, caring Terry.
Love you, Boubie. I will miss you ... for now.
