My deepest sympathy to Terry's family and friends - I'm at a loss for words but like someone above said, I echo that there is no cancer in heaven.

Hugs to Jaynee, Ashlee and the others on the forum that have been so close to Terry.

Terry fought so very, very hard to live. Poor kid was just such a blessing to so many of us and such a darn good friend. I've dreaded this news yet prayed for it to come quickly because of her pain.

I'll see you someday in Glory Land my sweet sister in Christ Jesus. Save me a place at the fishing hole! I love you!

Praying for her family......... Oh how much she loved her family....

So sad to read the news about Terry. She was such a remarkable person and her posts and friendship touched so many here at the CC and of course innumerable people in her life. Her spirit will be missed, but now soars with the angels pain and cancer free.
My deepest thoughts and sympathy to Terry's family and friends......she will be missed but never forgotten......

My thoughts and condolences are with Terry's family.

Terry, we go back so many years, and so many boards. You fought a good fight, now you can rest. I'm sure our old friends Pam, Mary, Jorge, Caroline and others are there to greet you. You know you were loved and appreciated by so many.

Went in for surgery for a cyst on my bladder, and they found colon cancer growing on the outside of the colon. Got to have two surgeries at the same time! Stage 3, one node involved.

As I just posted on FB, I'm glad she's home with the Lord and not in any pain or distress but am sad we'll never hear her "voice" again here. My prayers are with her family and close friends as they learn to live life without her shining presence.
Much love and prayers ~

Though a terrible loss to her family and friends and cc colleagues, Terry is now at peace from pain and suffering. The hurt is now for us. RIP sweet Terry. Your beautiful legacy will be never-ending.
