To all the Terrills...I feel so sad for all of you. I was glad to meet up with you 4 girls & Linda at the visitation. I have so many memories of seeing all of you in Montana so many years ago......you are in my prayers. Much love, Leona
It's been a long time, but when one leaves us, we still think and remember. We were kids growing up together in Montana, Ark.....walking the dirt roads from Goose Camp to Montana. We remember Jim as a young man, and it''s difficult to think he was 75 yrs old. For all the family, our prayers are with you.
Charles (Chuck) and Wynona Carter.
Dear Linda,
So sorry for you loss. I am so glad we got a chance to meet and spend time with you both a couple of years ago. I know life won't be the same without Jim, but please carry our prayers with you and your children. Knowing that Jim is without pain and worry and has joined his loving Father in Heaven and we will all unite some day in God's time.
Love,
Cousin Joan and family
Dearest Cousin Linda & family: I am so thankful that we had our recent visit together in PA. Jim is such a kind, gentle soul. He had such a way with his words to put a smile on our faces. We will forever hold him in our hearts and will remember him always. I will say extra prayers for you and your family. Just remember as the Lord takes him into Heaven he is in a much better world. Heaven has gained a sweet, loving and caring Man. Love to you all, Cousin Colleen & Randy & family.
Prayers for God's comfort to surround the family. Dawn, so pleased I met your fine Dad and Mom at their beautiful home. May your sorrow be eased knowing he is with our Heavenly Father.
So loved this kind man.
May his family find comfort with memories shared
and God's strength.
Coleen
