I can’t believe Terry has been gone for 4 years. I still remember our wonderful conversations at St. Vincent’s Riverside. Hope family is doing OK.

Terry invited my husband, Steve & I to ride in a limousine to St. Vincent Christmas party.  Our first, she knew how to make everyone feel special. I have many more stories.  But Terry moving across the street from us was very special...once her beloved convertible had almost triangular tires from no use because she loved nursing and worked any shift to accommodate her families special dreams. She finally drove around a bit, got air in the tires and wow what fun she had with the top down. Gosh she had a beautiful smile..always a smile and a hug...always. 

Angel Terry the beautiful stories of her trips to see her family. The one thing she wanted to do was go to the Thanksgiving Day parade. The story of Terry, Jackie and the kids was so sweet. I was always amazed at her energy with a smile. You know when you meet an Angel on earth they smile, make your day better and give you the best memories. Thank you for your friendship, I look forward to seeing you again my dearest friend.

Terry was my mentor on the Telemetry floor 5400 in St. Vincent. She was a patient advocate, a one of a kind exceptional Registered Nurse. Terry was a fun,  light up a room, love of life lady that will be terribly missed.  God bless her and her adorable family. RIP

Terrie was a beautiful  person inside and out,
Always showed compassion for her patients and loved her family.
My condolences  to the family

Terry and I worked together her entire time at St Vincent’s.   She was well know at work for 4 things:

Always being early to work.

Always wearing white, even after we were able to wear navy blue. 

Being an excellent nurse who was a fierce advocate for her patients.   In return her patients loved her and often sent notes to her manager telling about the wonderful care they received. 

Her love for her children and grandchildren.  When we found out about her passing most everyone said how hard this would be on the little ones because she was so involved with them. Every time I saw her she would share pictures of the grandkids. Even if I saw her every day.  

I am so glad that Terry was a part of my life and will miss her.  Rest sweetly my friend after a life well lived. 

I met Terry in 2014 when I transferred to St. Vincent’s Riverside. We bonded immediately as we were both “old school nurses”. I was impressed by the care she gave her patients. She never sat down! Was so dedicated. A little over 2 years ago I went to St. Vincent’s Clay County. We still kept in touch often. Then when my daughter unexpectedly passed away 5 months ago, she was one of the first people to reach out and one of the first people at the funeral. She gave us a beautiful potted flower/plant that I have still managed to keep alive and an angel pin that I wear every day at work. Now it will not only symbolize my daughter but also you, dear friend. I will miss you very much!!! Until we meet again. ❤️

Terry will be greatly missed in our family. We have wonderful memories of birthdays, graduations, holidays, get togethers, and celebrations. Our Sunday get togethers at our house with our whole family including Mimi and Poppy while enjoying the pool with all the kids, Italian food and sharing so many laughs and stories. Terry always made everything special, that was the type of person she was, wanting to make everyone happy. One day we will all see you in Heaven; give Ann-Marie a big hug and kiss from all of us. 

With Love,
The Iosa Family

My Dearest Sister, Theresa, my Tia. I miss you so much. Life will never be the same without you. We shared so many things between us. We talked many times and often. I will miss your voice, your face, your smile, and how you cared about everyone that you loved.  You're the most sweetest, giving, caring, and beautiful that I ever knew. The most passionate and caring nurse. Patients loved you because you were so good to them and so caring. I remember all our discussions, about work that we talked about and work could be so stressful with long hours. You also were given awards and recogized for your dedication  and  caring of others. I will miss you so very much. Life will not feel right without you in it. We were each others lifeline, and were always there for another.  We laughed, cried, and were always there for each other. RIP my Tia. I will always love and miss you.

I've known Terry longer than I've not known Terry! First, as a fellow actor in our senior class play & graduation class, then as a friend. And finally, as a member of our family. I am so very sorry that your life was cut so short & we won't see you at those, "Surprise, I'm here!" Thanksgivings. May you be free from pain now. Until we meet again, rest in peace & give Annmarie a hug from me. 🙏
To Anthony, Jackie & her children, Christopher & Tony Sr., hugs, prayers & love  to get you through this difficult time.  Love you guys!
(John wanted to make sure that I also send his condolences to you all.)
