"Tony, Deb and family....Just last night late a friend told me of Tera's passing. I had just talked with her the other day at Wal*Mart...glad she remembered me from years back! Tera was such a sweet young lady and so very dependable. She was so dedicated to her family and know she will be so dearly missed by all who knew her. You all are in my prayers at this difficult time. God has a new Angel and He will enjoy her as we all did here. Our Faith is strong at times like this, for God Loves each of us. Caren Lillie"
