I met Terri while shopping in JC Penney i struck up a conversation with her because we shared the same first name and I loved the way her face was made up. She was so kind and friendly to me and my husband while we shopped, it saddens me to see such a sweet spirited person leave this earth, but I can say Heaven have gain a beautiful angle!

Terri lived a blessed and promised life, full of love and touched every one she met with her graceful spirit. As a little kid, most children never imagine living without their parents..as you grow into adulthood there are certain people you just can't imagine not living in the same world as you, Miss Terri is that special someone because she meant that much. That's one thing I know I'll miss the most. That praying spirit within our sister. She had praying Parents, grands etc. Even over the phone, I can hear her say, "ok, let's pray about it..." or clasping hands in person, So now know that our family is praying for yours now and in the days, weeks ahead for strength, peace and comfort. If you need anything, I'd say only a call away, but those here in OKC know I'll be dropping by anyways. Love you much-Tasha (Vaughn) Patterson & family

My sincere sympathy to Mattie, Willie Sam Sr. and the entire Balloon Family. The first time I saw Terri as a new born baby, I rocked her in the Parsonage of the Adam Street Church of Christ in Enterprise Alabama. That is the last time I saw Terri. But her uncle, Henry Balloon, who lives near me in Maryland has shared with me over the years the joys and pleasures of his family. In the closing chapter of Terri--- Terri’s work on earth is done Her life in heaven has just begun Her struggles here may have been hard and long But they are over now, she’s finally home. Life wasn’t easy, by choice or fate A decision made, sometimes too late. A fight to the finish, always strong Rest easy Terri, you’re finally home. Vallie B. Dean

God does not make His people immune to the changes of human life but gives us grace to see things through to a satisfactory conclusion. Throughout it all God stays the same and controls human events in should a way that those who trust in Him will fine the comfort and the courage to endure. My heart is sadden: I just talked with Sharron and Terri about 2weeks ago: was so glad to see the Balloon sisters: they always have a smile and kind words to greet friends. My prayer for the family is that Joy will greet you each morning. We serve an awesome GOD.. PK forever

To My Beautiful Sister To my beautiful sister Terri my angel in heaven Did I thank you for the laughter and the happy times we knew and your patience as you listened when I talked my problems through? Terri, I hope you know that our friendship meant the world to me- or how your encouragement Lifted me. you taught me what true kindness and happiness should be. I find it so very hard to believe That you have gone and I must grieve; I call out your name -- you answer not, And I look for you in every familiar spot. Everything seems so strange and surreal, I ask every day is it a dream or real? I miss all the little ways you showed you cared, For there were so many good moments we shared; Looking back on my life's assorted scenes, I realized you taught me what love truly means; You were my trusted confidante and best friend, On whose loving support I could always depend We’ve shared so much laughter, shared so many tears, We’ve a spiritual bond. That grows stronger each year. We’re not sisters by birth, But we knew from the start, God put us together To be sisters by heart. It’s so hard to forget someone who gave you so much to remember. I know you are in gods care... that I will remember Love You Terri- I will see you again some day. I love you Balloon-Cole Family. Thank you for your welcome arms and love to me... I love Terri more than words can say.
