Terri, I miss you and your beautiful smile, great laugh, and attitude. Wow! Life goes by in a flash and then it is over leaving those left with sorrow, loss, and a void of emptiness. Remembering Terri helps rejuvenate some of the joys of knowing her. I know She is watching from above.
Missing you Mom!

I think of you everyday and wish you were still here to talk to and share Holly and my day with. My life has a huge hole in it, something is missing and it is you Mom!! I don't know how I am going to live my life without you and Holly without her Grandma. We talk about you and hope you are watching over us. We sent you balloons to Heaven on Mother's Day, hope you got our love notes attached. Your first Heavenly birthday is in 3 days and you would have been 61. I don't understand why God took you too soon, we had so much more life to live together, it breaks my heart!! Sending you my love Mom, always! XOXOXO your daughter
The Love of My Life

When Terri and I met the summer of 1975, I knew then that I was, and still am head over heels in Love with Terri. I was a Wildland firefighter with long blonde hair to my shoulders. Yes, Forest Service firefighters use to, and some still do have longer hair than their counterpart firefighters! Some of you remember, and have seen those photos...
When Terri was diagnosed three years ago, October 2017 with Breast cancer, she told me then, that this was going to end badly. Some of you may know Terri was very intuitive, to the point when she had a dream, or feeling, she was usually right! I learned to never discount those feelings and beliefs she had. This time though, I was disbelieving and fighting the thought she was right again. I was in denial, and said many times, you are wrong this time Baby! We now know she was right again... damn it. We did all we could to help and make life as comfortable for Terri as possible... and I/We are grateful for the time We had with her!
I only wish we could have done more and save her...
I will be the First to say, I am not happy, actually very angry losing my Soul Mate, Best Friend and Wife!!! Soo many of you are painfully missing her as well, and she knows that from her new Heavenly address.
Terri's copius Love for All of you is precious and heartfelt... From my family; Heather, Ryan, Kyran, Holly and myself, We Thank you for taking the time to write those happy, funny and joyous memories with our Dear and Beloved Terri. This website is the next best thing to physically being there! Damn pandemic...
Heather is doing a Great job with this wonderful website she started for all of us to share our thoughts and memories... Terri's sisters, my family, brothers, nieces, nephews, and dear friends... please join us in Celebrating Terri !!!
God Bless, Be Well during these very difficult times!
Soo many have experienced the pain and loneliness of losing a dear one this past year, and we are not the only ones! Take Care!
Love Carl, Husband, Father, Grandfather, Son, Brother, Uncle and friend.

One of my happiest times, more recently with my Mom was when she asked me to take a holiday baking class together at Sur La Table. We learned how to prepare and make homemade pumpkin and apple lattice pies to take home and bake. And damn were those the best pies we've ever had. And I dont even like pie, haha. One of funnest days we had learning proper techniques and the right ingredients and butter to use. We got free red and white pie dishes at the end of the class and spent the day shopping the downtown stores in La Jolla that day, while Papa watched Holly! Happy times, I'll always remember!
