For my friend on B-Dock.
So sad to hear this unexpected news.
RIP, Terry. We all will miss you.

Cotter and Little Cotter I am so sorry for your loss. Terry was a beautiful, sweet, and giving woman. I will always cherish my memories of the time I spent with your family. God bless you. Hugs and Prayers for all of you.

May God wrap his loving arms around Terry’s family. So terribly sorry for your loss. She was such a loving, sweet, beautiful, kind woman. Always made you feel welcome and had a great sense of humor. I know she will be missed deeply. Prayers of love and peace going out to her family. Love, Bobbi Roberts

My prayers are with you all. The world has lost an amazing woman, and she will be missed so very much. I have such great memories of having Terry as a room mother growing up at St Louis and of stuffing envelopes for the give 5 fundraiser at Reicher, as an alumni sitting by her, being able to talk and joke with her. I also remember her being at my mother’s viewing services. I’ll never forget the love she showed me when my mother passed. I still am comforted by her from that day.

Dear Cotter and family:
So sorry, our prayers are with you all. Terry and I went way way back. She was a joy to know. This was such an unexpected shock.
Bill & Jody Steakley

Our prayers and sympathy go out to Cotter and his family. Terry loved her family, especially her little granddaughter.
We will miss her smile and her great sense of humor. Rest in Peace Terry now that you are with your parents.

I knew Terry to be a warm and loving woman and she will truly be missed by her family, friends, and the RHS ’65 Reunion bunch. We had so much fun. I pray for the Lord’s peace that passes all understanding to be with the family as you go through this time of sorrow.

I will miss her peaceful spirit. Terry was such a sweet friend & I missed seeing her as much as I used to but even so when we did see each other she was always ready to show me beautiful pictures of her granddaughter, the joy in her life. Rest in Peace Sweet Lady.

May God ease the pain for the family at this time of loss. Every time I would see Terry we would always talk about family to catch up on how things were going with children and grandchildren. That was always the topic of the day. Such a loving lady. God bless the family

So sad to see this!! We have sure shared some laughs over the years. This leaves a big hole!

The memories in China spring that we had in the youth of our childhood are going to never be forgotten. For your family was definitely an extension of mine my condolences are with you and dad your wife and your daughter.

My deepest condolences and remembrances!

So sorry to hear this unexpected news. My thoughts and prayers are with the Stringer family.

We will miss you so very much Terry. Our sympathies and much love to all.

Sad over the unexpected passing of such a fun, loving and kind lady from Richfield HS to China Spring—always a friend whenever we’d meet over the years—your artful love of nature and your kindness in this world is missed.

You will remain in our hearts forever. Much love and condolences to Cotter and Little Cotter, Lindsey and Caitlin.

Cotter and Little Cotter,
We send our heartfelt condolences. We are praying that God will grant you the serenity and peace to get you through this most difficult time. Terry was truly a forever friend and such a big part of our family. We are blessed to have so many fond memories of Terry that will live in our hearts forever. I will always treasure the summer months I worked for her when home from college and the many lazy afternoons we would spend on the lake. We have so many great memories of the times she entertained my twins on her barge, the fabulous meals and parties she had over the years, and most recently hosting a huge party for the Jarosek family reunion. Her laugh was one we will never foget. We are truly sorry for your loss and please know we are praying for you.
Love you forever and always,
Paul and Terri Van Gorp

Cotter and Family, I know Terry will be terribly missed by family and a multitude of friends. My prayers will be for you.

Sharlyn and Richard

Dear Cotter, I am so shocked and saddened by Terry’s death. I have many fond memories of years long ago. We were so young, and we all had so much fun together. Terry was someone who always made others feel like they were very important to her and that she genuinely cared for them. And she did. I ran into her a few months ago, and we were able to catch up a little bit. I am thankful for that. I will always remember Terry. She was a very special person.

I was saddened to hear of Terrys passing. She was a deer friend and will be greatly missed. My God bless you and yours.

Terry was such a lovely and gracious person. She was there for me several times when I truly needed the love and support she so freely offered. Thank you Terry. Much love and prayers to your family.

Cotter you and your family are in our prayers. Your mom was a great lady and always made us feel welcome. Your mother was all ways made everyone she met feel special, she will be missed dearly. Our condolences, Ray and Celia Casares.

Cotter and family…I am so sorry. Terry was truly one of a kind. I have many memories of Terry and Aunt Maunell together….they were quite a pair! Thank you all so much for sharing Terry and for making Dad & Aunt Maunell a part of your family.

Love,
Jamie

I was very sad to hear of Terry’s passing, she was a wonderful person. I met Terry in college and although, I have not seen her for many years I have thought of her often. Keeping your family in my thoughts and prayers and may God bless you all at this most difficult time.

Terry was such a giving and talented person. I have never seen anyone accept her illness with such serenity and confidence and it could only be because of her awareness of her life lived and life forever. We hope she and Cotter are forever friends.

To Cotter & family, so sorry for your loss,Terry was such a kind person with a beautiful smile,will keep you all in our prayers.

Big and Little Cotter:
What fond memories of all of us at airport park marina back in the days having wonderful times on the houseboats. Either being tied up in the middle of the lake or over at the dam. Awesome times.
Keeping the Stringer family in my thoughts and prayers. She was a wonderful lady and will be greatly missed.

Words can not express the loss.
May you and yours reside in peace.

To Cotter Jr. And the entire Stringer family, I’m very saddened to hear about your mother’s passing. You are all in our prayers and I will always remember Terry as the wonderful and caring mother that you know her as.

To the whole family I want to express my condolences. Though I did not know Terry well she did do our landscaping and was always so gracious and calm and considerate. I am so saddened for you and will keep the family in my prayers.
Cynthia Squires

To Cotter, Little Cotter and Lindsey,
There are no words to express my sorrow. I was just devastated that I was out of the country and could not be there for you at this time. I would have cancelled my trip if I had known she was so near the end.
Terry was the dearest, most loyal friend anyone could have – I treasured her friendship and all of our shared fun times which go back more than 50 years. She was so caring, so loving and so genuine! She had an exceptional artistic talent and I will think of her everyday as I gaze upon my beautiful landscaped front yard.
We will all miss her so, but I am thankful Terry had such a strong faith and knew she would be in the arms of Jesus.
May God’s love bring all of you comfort, peace and courage in the days to come.
Love and sympathy,
Peggy Lane

Deepest sympathy to Cotter and family, and my thanks to you for the lovely tribute to Terry in the video — some sweet and priceless moments there. Thanks for sharing them.
