Accept my deepest condolences to the Hartzog family during this difficult time.  I've known Terri for many years as my client, recently meeting her & Norris at the Ehrlich Branch.  Strong willed, huge heart who fought hard.  Wishing Norris and the family strength and peace in knowing Heaven has gained an Angel.

I am so sorry to Norris  and family. I enjoyed our visits in blood draw at Moffitt.  My hearts sad!!
Sincerely, Kelley @ Speros Moffitt

Norris and family.   My heart aches for your loss, but I know Terrie shines on.  God bless you.

We will all miss Terrie and her warm smile and big heart. Since first meeting Terrie many years ago, we became more than just in-laws, we became more like sisters. I was in her wedding; we raised our children together and shared many holidays and special occasions. Terrie was with me when I first met my husband Al. She was my son Ryan's godmother, and was a part of Ryan, Kyle, and Alicia's lives through adulthood. Terrie loved her children and spent many special vacations cruising and visiting Disney with Suzanne, Norris, Tim, and their spouses. She loved her husband Norris with her whole heart! With her health issues, Norris did everything he could to make her comfortable. Terrie will be missed but will always remain in our hearts! Lovingly, Janice Hartzog Chmielewski

Norris,
I am truly sorry for the loss of your lovely wife Terrie.  I am so thankful that you and Terrie stopped by to visit with me and Debra Jean in Covington. We had a great time letting the ladies get to know each other over dinner and they truly hit it off 
Anytime that you feel like talking, you can count on me to lend an ear. I love you my brother.
Ben

This is Norris, not everyone knows that Terrie & I met while in High School. She was a freshman and i was a senior. She was so good looking i was unable to ask her out. Then one day while working at Publix she came in with her Step mother. I quickly picked up something to be stocked in the diary and asked a friend to keep and eye on Terrie as I worked. I spoke briefly to them and started walking slowing back to the stock room. My friend was waiting on me, I asked did she watch me? He said the whole way in! I now knew i had a chance. I approached her at Lyman as asked her out and the rest is history. We dated 3 years and got married on 6/18/1977 after her graduation. We were married for 48 years and 7 months. We watched over each other during our illness and I now have to she her go. Terrie I will also LOVE your 143 forever!!!

Robert and I send our deepest condolences to Terrie's Family and friends.  She was a delight to be around,  always a laugh and a smile. She had Love for everyone.  She will be missed.

The Echos of her heart

The day of the unknown is always a heartbeat away.
That day is here now, and your heartbeat has slipped away.
You gave me life the moment our hearts beat as one,
But now the rhythm we shared has come undone.
I reach for your voice in the quiet, but silence answers instead,
A world once warm with your presence now colder instead.
Your wisdom lingers softly in the corners of my head, 
I stare into the darkness wondering what’s ahead. 
For even though your heartbeat has drifted beyond my own,
Its echo lives within me carved in bone.
And as I walk forward through the shadows of this loss,
I feel the strength you planted, no matter the cost.
A mother’s love doesn’t vanish as my heart beats alone,
It settles in the spaces where your tenderness was sown. 
It steadies my trembling hands with the memory of your touch.
Though grief reshapes the daylight and colors every dawn, Your love remains the compass that keeps me moving on. And while I cannot follow where your final heartbeat flew, I carry every part of you in everything I do.
