Dear Conmy Family, I was sad to hear that Teri had passed away. She has always been in my heart and there she shall remain. She played an important part in my early sobriety. Her words to this day I remember and use as part of my recovery story. Teri was the first counselor I ever had in my life and being under a year sober at the time I am grateful I ended up in her office. One particular conversation I had with her when she was giving me directions and affirmation that I deserved a better life, that I would find that happiness in the 12 Steps. I was frustrated, depressed and feeling quite hopeless. With an infectious smile, Teri said to me, “You don’t believe me do you?” To which I replied, “No, I do not.” Teri then squealed and laughed and said, “What!? Do you want it in writing?” And I replied, “Yes, I want it in writing.” Teri then produced a sheet of notebook paper. She had me write some directions down then she took the sheet of paper from me and wrote these exact words, “If you believe what you hear If you follow directions It will get better & better & better! That’s a fact- Promises on bottom of page 83.” So, I have my guarantee in writing. I have maintained continuous sobriety since then and I have held on to this simple piece of paper since that day in 1987. I have it framed and on a shelf where I see it every day. It has been part of my journey and will remain so. When I tell my story, I talk about Teri and that day in her office when she told me the truth. My deepest sympathy and love, Jay Leaning

Terri was a joy to visit and dine with. She was a friend of my Mom's, Eileen Kelly at Forwood Manor. I spent many meals with her, she brightened my visits for the last few years as my Mom's dementia progressed, she was my sunshine at Forwood. Always asking where I recently was shopping, traveling, how work was going and how my Mom was doing once she got sicker. Thanksgiving 2017 was wonderful... was just Mom & I so Terri & Jack joined us at Forwood. I had smuggled Manhattans in in a water bottle, the three of us gals indulged. I will always remember Terri as kind, smart, well dressed with the best jewelry (we always admired each others!) Even when she was sick, she still looked great. It was so lovely to know her even for a short time, will never forget her!!!! Heather Moore, Wayne PA
