I will surely miss running into you at Zeller's when I'd do "DAY" trips to Kenora and lately the Sobey's on Bishop Grandin. It was always a "wonderful" surprise when we able to catch up from the last time we'd meet. At the last dinner in December when I reintroduced Jordan after not seeing her for a few years, she looked "WAY" up at him and said "HOLY SH*T" he had grown so tall since she'd seen him last. I never heard him laugh so hard. When I told him she passed away, he said that he'd always remember that about her. Terra thought she was funny and very easing going. Uncle Jerry, cousin Karen and Lisa, your wife and mother will truly be missed by all that met and knew her. You are in our thoughts and prayers at this time. - Posted by: Debbie Oram (niece) on: Mar 02, 2012
