CM, I'm so glad Terri had you and your girls to make her so happy this last year. I know when she was putting together the shower she sounded so giddy and delighted in her planning. When they lost Andy, I'm sure you helped her through that pain. So hugs to you as a dear member of her family. And hugs to all of us, we were too, and will miss her very much. Dear TDK family, I don't express myself very often, but I love all of you so much. You will never know what you have meant to me. I'm sorry, have to go, can't see the screen very well. Blessings to all.

I have been reading all the post from all of you about Terri. I can't stop crying either. John sounded like a lost soul when I talked with him earlier. He just loved her so much. We could tell that when we were with them.

My Friend
Christina Rossetti
Two days ago with dancing glancing hair,
With living lips and eyes:
Now pale, dumb, blind, she lies;
So pale, yet still so fair.We have not left her yet, not yet alone;
But soon must leave her where
She will not miss our care,
Bone of our bone.Weep not; O friends, we should not weep:
Our friend of friends lies full of rest;
No sorrow rankles in her breast,
Fallen fast asleep.She sleeps below,
She wakes and laughs above;
To-day, as she walked, let us walk in love,
To-morrow follow so.She has always been my favorite poet. Terri laugh above.

No not Mama Terri! Okay I was informed of this through Angel and then i was speakign to Buttercupa dn Stubby's momma! I am numb and shocked! My mind cnat seem to wrap itself around this and take it in. Knowign feel this wya I can only assume John is feeling this way 100 times more! I'm not sure if I want to cry, or ask questions and be logical and work this out! My mind and heart are in a battle here. Tears and shock and disbelief to be assured and yet my mind wants to find a logical reason to explain her loss. My famiy I love you all and with each loss we take my hert breaks nd I just wonder if it is shredded to pieces yet! Love ya all i am going to bed!

Just got home...such dreadfully sad news. Ron, thank you for posting, I pray that your strength will comfort John.
I will find comfort in what I'm sure was Cindy's warm embrace to welcome Terri, surrounded by all the TDK kitties.

I'm so saddened by this - Terri really was a foundation stone of TDK. I wish she had been able to post more lately. Farewell dear Terri. My deepest condolences to John.

*wanders aimlessly back and sits down for a moment to reflect.... wipes the tears from her eyes and begins to pray for John and for all who are hurt by Terri's passing.... manages a smile as she thinks of Andy the Tail-less Wonder happily greeting his mommy ... the Rainbow Bridge is truly a beautiful place and the world beyond it is even more awesome... wipes tears from her eyes again and slowly gets to her feet ... it is late and she has to get up early for church tomorrow*

My deepest condolences John for your immense loss of Terri. She will be greatly missed by all, I do believe that Andy aka Nilla Bean was there first to greet her along with Renee and Chester. I don't know what else to say except I do hope that the man above really knows what an angel he has asked to return to heaven.

This is so sad. I didn't know Terri personally but I know many of you did. I have not been able to make any of the TDK meets, but I really hope to meet many of you someday. My prayers go out to John in his time of sorrow. When anybody finds out the cause of death, please post asap. This is important to know. May everyone have a blessed day and think about Terri today.

I am in shock, as we all are. Another friend goes to the rainbow brige, but why. John, you have our deepest sympathy in your loss of your beloved Terri. May God surround you both in his comfort. I am so sorry. Safe journey, my friend.

I'm saddened to hear of Terri's death. John, my heart goes out to you. I'm grateful that Terri was able to share her life with you for the time she had; I'm so sorry that it wasn't longer.

John, I am so sorry for the loss of your wife and friend. I can imagine how lost you must be. My prayers and thoughts are with you. May you find peace, and know that all of TDK is sending you love and good thoughts. There will come a time when hearing the purr of a kitten or the sound of an ambulance won't bring tears, but a smile of remembrance. I know you are a good and special man, John, because Terri chose you, and she was a special woman. Prayers and good thoughts are with you today and always. (((John & family)))

I'm in shock! Just got a couple of email asking me to check TDK to find this sad, sad news.
Terri was one of the first to welcome me into the TDK fold and I always looked forward to her posts. This is so sudden and so heartbreaking! It seemed to me Terri and John were doing so well these days. Terri had her man back home (remember how he was working away in Pensacola, I believe it was), they bought their new house that they were so excited about and then came the long-overdue new job that she seemed to enjoy.
I got to meet Terri and John both last year for the TDK meet and Terri was instrumental in setting that up - and even had us all stay at her house! That was a wonderful weekend! During our recent Florida meet, we all spoke to Terri as well. She and I spoke about me coming up for a visit that'll now never happen :(
My condolences to John - I'm so sorry for your loss. Know that Terri is watching over you accompanied by little Andy. (((Hugs))) -

I am so so so sorry to hear, for her family and friends, and those of us that only knew this wonderful person through TDK. It's so hard that she went so suddenly and without warning but at least she was happy in life and with John. And now she is in a better place, with Cindy and Chester.
I'll be praying for her and all those who loved her. ((hugs))

Oh my goodness.... I am truly at a loss for words. I wasn't on last night and so did not see this horrible news when it was posted, and am just arriving now at 9:00 am CST. What terrible, terrible news to find.
Terri has truly been one of the brightest points of light here in our little TDK family. Like all of you, I have so missed her postings since she began her new job and had limited time to spend with us. Although it was only a brief conversation, I talked to her on the phone along with all of the others, at the last TDK Florida gathering.
I remember from over a year ago when Terri was so ill with cellulitis and she was so worried and frightened. But I thought that she had recovered.
You all, I simply have no words. It is truly a mark of the kind of person that Terri was that she leaves so many to grieve who have never even met her in person. Those who lead such good and unselfish lives, always thinking of others, truly never leave us. Terri's kindness, her caring, her empathic heart will be with us always. As long as we remember, she will never be gone. It is quite a legacy to leave. Although she has left all too soon. For one so young and so good to be taken is heart wrenching. These are the times when I know that we all ask, "Why?". Why should one so good be taken so young? It is hard to even gather thoughts.
John, I know that you are in shock and living with a sense of the surreal. Although we are scattered across the whole world. I hope that it might give you some comfort to know how deeply loved Terri was by all of us. My most heartfelt condolences and you and Terri will be in my prayers.
Live well each day. Love deeply. Forget petty grievances. Find beauty in every single day. Messages that I think Terri has given to us.

This is such terrible news! Why does God keep taking our family members? He must know we are loving compassionate people and cats! I never knew Terri personally but am deeply saddened by her passing. She sounds like such a wonderful loving person. I wish I would have known her. She is now another TDK angel and hopefully sitting in the fields of catnip with all the kits who have crossed the rainbow bridge. She will forever care for out kits until we join them in Heaven. John, if you are reading this, your Terri was loved dearly by her TDK family and so are you. Please know she has many sad family members and we are all praying for you and your family. Giving you hugs and gentle white lite to help you through this difficult time.
