I had a vivid dream last night that you were still here. I knew in my dream not to take the time with you for granted... It was so nice to see you! I miss you so much every single day of my life. Xoxoxoxo - Posted by: Terra (Daughter) on: Jul 28, 2016

Terrie. I have been thinking of you lately and smiling in thanks for the brief time I was able to know you. I find it hard to believe you've been gone nearly nine years. How the years slip past us but the memories and love never fade. Rest peacefully. Xo - Posted by: Michael Brian Rueckert (Step son) on: Sep 27, 2015

Mom, 6 years has gone by and it feels like yesterday. I miss you so much. Your grandson Logan never met you in person, but he knows who you are and knows you are his angel. We love you, more than you'll ever know. Take care of everyone up there. xox - Posted by: Terra Pughe (Smith) (Daughter, best friend) on: Oct 01, 2012
