When I first met Teri she gave me the biggest smile.  She always made me feel warm and comfy.  My granddaughter, Averi loved her and like all children, she was loved.  Averi and Teri spent many fun times together.  I will always cherish the time she spent with her and how blessed we were to have had her in our life.  You will be missed more than you know.  My prayers are with her family and I hope each of you find comfort in knowing she was loved my so many!

See you on the other side Teri!!!❤❤

We miss our mom, Teri. We were with her since we were only 6 week old kittens. She loved us and took us home with her to live. We were so scared when she went to the Rainbow bridge before we did, but her sister, Lisa, and her dad, Philip, and her aunts Bernadette and Peggy and Lisa's husband David watched after us and so did her neighbor. Then Brenda, Teri's step-mom, found us a new home with her friend that she's had for over 50 years, and Lisa and Brenda drove us a very long way to live with her in a beautiful place. We are still scared and shy, but now we know that we have a new forever home and will be together (not to be nasty, but Bing and Nora might like a little distance from Bernie now and then because he is so pushy!) Here is a picture of us when we were just kittens and a picture of us curled up when our mom, Teri, was still with us. We know that our mom, Teri, is in a better place and that she's happy we have a loving home now. She's waiting for us to join her, and she's with all of her other dogs and kitties that got there first. We have a wonderful new home and new mom here, and when it's time, we'll join our mom, Teri. We are so happy to have a new forever home. Thank you Linda Kaye, our new mom, who loves us already.  Nora, Bing, and Bernie

Teri and I were instant friends the day we met. She was about to have her neck surgery Tony had had the same which helped her nerves. Many, many good times together.

We are so sorry for your loss. Teri had such a big heart and she was fabulous with kids. My condolences to your family and loved ones. May she be forever alive in your heart and memories. God bless her.

Teri was always a joy to be around and the kids adored her.  We will miss her visits and laughter.  We will love you and miss you always.

SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS LISA LOVE YOU ALWAYS ANNA

Teri you were so well loved by everyone who knew you. You were more like the big sister I never had when you would come to visit us in Maryland. I'm glad we shared some laughs and animal videos that would make us both crack up, or tear up depending, during our time here. You had a gift in your teaching ablities too children and animals alike and it always showed. I hope you are resting easy now, I'll see you when I get there. 

Love,
Your big cousin

I remember the very first time I saw Teri I was getting a tour of the family home on Westlawn in Dallas when her little sister Lisa told me that her and her sisters bedroom were down this hallway, as I looked down the hall out popped one of the most beautiful girls I had ever seen it was Teri Lisas big sister with a bowl of Raisin Bran. She was stunning and now everytime I eat a bowl of raisin bran I think of Teri...
Great person who loved animals and her niece Ashlee Chavez without question.

SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS SHES NO LONGER SUFFERING RIP TERI

Teri is one of a kind. She has a pure soul with a heart made from kindness. 
She helped all she could, it didn't matter if they had 2 legs or 4 legs. She is loved and will be missed bunches.

Teri is dear to many and it brings much sadness to hear she has passed and been taken to heaven. 

As she touched many- Angel she is!


I was saddened to hear the news of the passing of Miss Teri.  My thoughts and prayers for the family and the hopes that they will find comfort in each and every memory of Teri.  God Bless You All.

Lisa,
I am so sorry and so sad you have lost Teri.  She has been in our thoughts and is tragically gone -- way too early.  We've known Teri for the last 26 years or so.  We always met up for St. Pats in Dallas and spent some Christmas and Thanksgivings together over the years. Chili cook offs, camping, dogs, and cats, Teri was always fun.  She will be missed.  She touched a lot of peoples lives and she influenced and cared for 1000's of children in her lifetime.  RIP Teri, no more worries.

Teri was always such a fun and caring person to everyone that knew and loved her. My kids (and every kid and animal) simply adored her. When I was a little girl, I truly thought she was a walking barbie doll. I wanted to be her. She was beautiful inside and out. I'm comforted knowing that she may finally have found some peace. We will always love you, Teri. I'm so sorry. 

My fondest memories of Teri were the little girl who loved animals and loved spending time with her family.  Her love of children extended to her second cousins in Maryland and they will miss her.  I can't eat Maryland crabs without thinking of Teri.  I still remember her and Lisa selling crab claws to the neighbors.  I will carry special memories with me forever. 

Teri touched the lives of so many, including myself.  She was so full of life showing it in her various positions within CFB.
May she rest in peace and may our God comfort her family.

As her aunt and godmother, I will always treasure the moments that Teri was in my life, starting from the day she was born. She was a sweet, fun, and caring person. She had a gift when it came to children and animals, too. They all loved her. She will be missed every day.

Will miss you forever aunt Teri. I know you're in heaven now with all your animals. 

I love you

My loving sister will be missed forever.
She is with God and no more suffering

Love you always and forever,

So saddened to learn of Teri's passing. I will always treasure the years we worked together at CFBISD. Prayers for comfort and peace for your family. RIP.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Teri was such a sweet and dear person. I am sure she will be missed by many.

Lisa,
Sad to hear abut Teri I'm sure she will be missed by many..Hope this finds your family doing well

Sad to hear of Teri's passing. She was a sweet & loving person especially to her animals. She will be missed.

Teri you were a kind person that truly cared for those around you.  I forgot I had this photo of you.  Beautiful on the inside and out.  Thanks for always listening to me complain about the world but thank you even more for helping me to see the good in people.  You were a friend to everyone.

Teri will be missed by many. Rest in peace.

Teri was the first person that I befriended when I moved to Dallas. I've never known anyone with a bigger, kinder, generous heart and soul. Bye for now Teri. Can't wait to see you again when my time comes.

Eternal love.

Very sad to hear this news.  Way too young.  Prayers to her family and friends and her beloved animals.

I was so saddened to hear about Teri's passing. She was one of the most loving people I had ever met. She loved people and all animals deeply and would always be there to help if needed. She once convinced me to adopt a kitty that had wandered up to her front porch looking for love. I was not so sure, but it turned out to be a wonderful decision and I know that Maxwell would agree. He sends his love with mine. She will truly be missed.

Rest in Peace my dear friend.
