I THINK BACK ON RANDALL AVE STANDING ON GRANDMAS PORCH AND WAVING TO TERRY AS SHE WALKED HOME FROM SCHOOL. I NEW ONCE IN THE HOUSE THE RECORD PLAYER WOULD BE READY TO SHOUT OUT THE DUNES OF THE FOUR SEASONS. IN MY BEST FALSETTO VOICE I WOULD SING ALONG,.TERRY WOULD BE QUICK TO TELL ME I WAS SINGING ALL THE WRONG WORDS AND WE WOULD LAUGH AND SING TOGETHER ( BIG GIRLS DONT FLY) TO THIS DAY EVERYTIME I HEAR A FOUR SEASONS SONG I ALWAYS THINK OF YOU. SAY HELLO TO ALL FOR ME
I will always remember her babysitting her younger cousins, and she would play her music and teach us the newest dance steps.. We would dance and sing over and over until Grandma finally made us stop and play Put in Take with her. I will always remember her teaching me to dance, good memories I will cherish.
Cousins, we are very sorry for you loss and are hearts are with you today in your sorry. Your Mom will always be with you, always. But, she needs to spend time with the Angels now and get acquainted.. you know your Mom.. Then she will be back surrounding you in spirit and love. Love you, you are not alone.
So sorry about Terry's passing. I grew up with her on Randall Ave. We played together and were cousins all those years ago. I remember her collection of dolls and taking her for Halloween Trick or Treat with me one year when she was really little. Terry was a character and we got into trouble sometimes especially when she talked me into helping her burying a sick doll that didn't make it. We would dig a hole in her backyard and I had to be the priest. I'll remember her as she was the last time I saw her years ago and mostly as the little girl I grew up with.
