I am shocked and saddened to learn of Terrys passing. I got to know Terry when I was a patient at Dr Mitchell Humes here in Charlotte. Terry was ALWAYS so Very Nice and Pleasant to speak with. I send my Heartfelt Condolences to all of Terrys Loved ones. My nice memories of Terry will be with me for my remaining days here on this Earth. Rest in Peace Terry. You were so well Loved

I'll always remember our group trips to Mary Carpenter's brother Max's place in the mountains!  The good times of nightly board and card games, adult beverages, laughter and someone 🙄 landing in the floor!
RIP my friend!❤️🙏🕊️

Terry we miss you dearly! The dinners we would share several times a week, playing dominoes, laughing, acting silly, watching movies or binge watching  a series. We will always miss the smile on your face the positive attitude and the friendship that we shared. We loved you so much. Jeff & Byron.

Terry was one of my favorite people. She was always smiling and laughing and I never heard her speak against anyone. She was a bright light in my life and I will always remember her.

I am writing this to the family of Terry Johnson.  I want you to know how sorry I am for your loss.  Every time I saw Terry, she was so happy, gracious, kind, funny and incredibly selfless and genuinely unconditionally loving.  I don't have a long list of people I could ever say that about.  She left us too soon.  But, I truly believe her spirit and her love and enthusiasm for life will live on in everyone she loved.  My heart goes out to you. 
Sincere condolences,
Sharon Joy Gerard

Im so sorry for your loss. I knew Terry through the Emmaus Community. She was such a lovely & caring person. She will be missed.

Terry was always the ‘life of the party’ with her quick wit and beautiful smile. We had such a good time at the Witches Ride last year and she was looking forward to participating again this fall.  We will ride again in her honor and will continue to hold her close in our hearts. She will be missed…

I was so sorry to hear of Terry’s passing. I knew her through CCEC. We served on the board and several walks together as well as seeing each other at gatherings and fourth day retreats. Terry always had a smile on her face and was so much fun. She will be missed by all who knew her. Her family is in my prayers.

My heart breaks for Terry’s family and her many friends.  She and I worked together at Dr. Hume’s office before she retired.  We ate lunch together everyday and became good friends in and out of the office.  We were the epitome of opposites that found a way to look past our differences, and embrace our commonalities.  We have stayed in touch since I moved to Florida and she retired to the beach.  We were soon going to spend some time together before her horrific end.  My only comfort, is that she went so quickly.   Terry was loved by so many.  I loved her. I will miss her dearly. And I am thankful she called me her friend.  God…I hope you are ready for the many questions she will have for you.  She always made me think with all her questions.  I will miss them too.

So sad to hear of Terrys passing. I had not know she had retired to the beach but I am so glad she did because I knew that was her happy place. We worked together at Dr. Perlins for many years and one summer we went to a dental convention on St. Simons Island.  Terry enjoyed every minute of being there.  She loved her children and was thrilled when her granddaughter was born.
Terry and I had not been in touch for quite awhile as Dr. Perlin retired and we all went our separate ways.
My condolences to the family.

Terry

I miss you my dear friend.  When I look over at sofa to the spot where you would sit, I see you sitting there. So many good times and memories we shared.   I am so thankful that I was lucky enough to have you as a friend      I will never forget you.

Terri was the most loving person you could ever meet.  She was so very special to her friend group.  On Saturday night August 9 she had a first party at her special home she loved so much. I was so honored that she wanted me to help her find the perfect place here on the island.  She found it and fell in love with her home at the beach. I was with her just minutes before on the beach we were going opposite directions that morning Lord only knew that time was short. Her last time here on earth was a wonderful walk on the beach. God Bless Terri and the family. Prayers for all the family the next many days,weeks,months to come.

Teresa was an angle, a person that when she asked you how are you doing her words were true. I met her while she worked at Dr Humes dental office.  My condolences to the family. Michael Riccardi
