Terry was born in Brooklyn, NY on May 22, 1927 to Vito Ancona and Mary Farrugia. Terry married the love of her life, Lido Ghezzi, in 1947. Their beloved union of 71 years ended with Lido’s death in 2018.
Terry was a devout Catholic and was commissioned as a Eucharist Minister for the Church of the Good Shepherd in Holbrook, NY. She served the Church in that capacity for 20 years until she and Lido moved to Pompano Beach, FL in 2015. Terry was a devoted wife, loving mother, and an accomplished organist.
Her Italian cooking, sense of humor and painting and crochet talents will be greatly missed. Terry is survived by her son Lee Ghezzi of Pompano Beach; daughter JoAnne Vlaun of Katy, TX; grandchildren Lorraine Vlaun and Carolyn Miller (Katy, TX); Jason Ghezzi (Atlanta, GA), Capt. Anthony Ghezzi (US Army) and Roxanne Ghezzi (Orlando); great-granddaughters Andriana Miller and Celia Ghezzi and many wonderful friends.
An internment service at the South Florida National Cemetery will be conducted at a later date.
