Teri, also known as Tadie, was a strong-willed woman with a heart one-thousand times her small frame. She lived a life full of joy, adventure, and wonder. She would always say that her biggest accomplishments were being a mother and grandmother. In her spare time, she loved sewing, crafting, antiquing, and gardening.
