  6. Thank you Bella. *shudders* 48 is just too young...
    I guess you just don't know when the Lord is going to need another cat loving angel to help out around The Rainbow Bridge.

  8. Thank you BT. I noticed that messages posted to the family take some time going through. I pray that John and Terri's family see the messages.

  9. Thank you Bella! Wow, only 48. She was only three years older than I am. Really makes one think.

  12. Buttercup had posted this also this morning. Bless her heart - she needs so much more than just a mention in the obituary section.

  15. I'm really sad to read this, not just for the obvious, but because I am certain that there should be more words for our Terri.

  16. TL - Terri's sister posted on the thread telling us about her death that there will be a memorial service for her in Michigan later, but I know what you mean - I thought the same when I saw the notice. She deserves so much more!

  17. Thanks Karen, have been away for a while.
    I just think, there are not enough words, and yet there are none on that page:(
    I kept clicking on the link thinking there was something wrong with my computer

  18. I thought the same thing. I went to the main Obituaries link and clicked on her name to see if I had missed something. I thought, "Is that all?" I don't know what this paper's obituary policy is, but some papers charge to publish anything other than a brief death announcement like this.

    Posted 2 years ago by Leeny #

  19. That's true, the policy to charge what they do just doesn't seem right. I was looking for my brother in laws obit in the Orlando paper and what I found was all most the same as Terri's, and when I told Richard that just a little while ago he was upset with it as well. I don't know if that was the way their mother planned it or what, but it wasn't enough.

  20. I agree that very very sad. It should say so much more.... :(

  21. I have been following the chat since Terri passed away. CM suggested donating in Terri's name at the location she found Ginger. I thought that would be a nice idea. I worked with Terri and all of us were/are in shock. I contacted the location Terri found Ginger. We are going to make a donation in Terri's name. I do not know if anyone else would like to do so. I have the information but do not know if it is allowed on the site. I will continue following the chat. If there is any interest in donating I will pass the information on. Thank you

  22. CHERWOODT - Thank you for getting in touch with us - I am sure that a donation in Terri's name to the place she found Ginger is something we would be interested in. You can post the information here or you can start a new thread about it. It is nice to know that Terri worked with people that appreciated her love for her babies.

  23. (((Cherwoodt))), my condolences to you and all of Terri's co workers.
    Please post the information.
    If you see John, please extend a TDK collective hug.

  24. CherwoodT, my condolences as well to you and your co-workers. Terri talked about you often. You may be the person I talked with when we had our Ft. Lauderdale meet and phoned Terri so she could talk with each of us and be part of our day.

  25. Cherwoodt, I think it is wonderful that you are doing this in Terri's name, she would be so happy. You wouldn't happen to be the lady I've spoken to when I have called her at the office?? My real name is Julie!

  26. (((CherwoodT))) Thank you. I think Terri would be so happy to know that people will donate to a cause so close to her heart. It's a purrfect idea to honor her memory.

  27. CherwoodT...A big Thanks to you & your co-workers for doing such a wonderful thing in Terri's honor. My Heartfelt Sympathies for your loss.

  28. These are the lyrics to a Garth Brooks song called Pushing up Daisies

    Sometimes I tell you the way that I feel
    I swear that I'm going crazy
    keep telling myself it ain't that big a deal
    It's better than pushing up daisies

    I felt the arrow from death's fatal quiver
    Come so close it actually grazed me
    I bled the blood and i felt the cold shiver
    God only knows how He saved me

    There's two dates in time
    That they'll carve on your stone
    And everyone knows what they mean
    What's more important
    Is the time that is known
    In that little dash there in between
    That little dash there in between

    Sometimes my heart is as true as a dove
    Sometimes my heart it betrays me
    So i draw my sword for to fight for my love
    But without a whisper she slays me

    My mother died but somehow she keeps living
    She'll never cease to amaze me
    Now Dad turns his back on each day that he's given
    Because he'd rather be pushing up daisies

    There's two dates in time
    That they'll carve on your stone
    And everyone knows what they mean
    What's more important
    Is the time that is known
    In that little dash there in between
    That little dash there in between

    Terri packed a lot into that little dash there in between
