Praying for the entire families. RIP Terri. Eric Hairston, Hampton, VA LPHS c/o 1983

Eric Hairston

My condolences to the family and friends of such a beautiful human. Gone too soon but Terri will never be forgotten. Every time I would run into her, she would hug me & ask about my family. She was best friends with my cousin Rhonda & she will be missed more than you know. I guess that God needed a perfect flower for his garden so he called her name. May she rest peacefully. Peace and blessings, she loved her family.

Tamika Zigler Dillard

Our family has TRULY lost an angel. Terri was always kind and had a good word for anyone who needed advice, comfort or support. I will truly miss her text and videos since we live in different states. She always too time to check on me after Joy Martin passed in 2018. Terri always laughed and made others feel loved and cared for. I will miss her dearly. I am praying for the whole family and my heart goes out to you all from Texas. Sorry I can't be there in person.
