   In Loving Memory of Mary M. Terry. Mary M. Terry, born July 31, 1951, passed away on May 27, 2026, leaving behind a lifetime of cherished memories and a legacy of love, kindness, and dedication. Mary was a devoted mother, grandmother, sister, and friend whose warmth touched the lives of everyone fortunate enough to know her. Her family was the center of her world, and she found great joy in the love and connections they shared. Though she and Roy Terry were divorced, they remained lifelong friends and continued to care  for one another throughout the years. She is lovingly remembered by her daughter, Andee Terry; her beloved grandchildren, Maliek Gregory, Kaymani, and Kelise Hernandez; her longtime friend and former husband, Roy Terry; and her sisters, Andrea, Barb, Rose, Ann, Angel, and Beth and several nieces and nephews and many dear friends.
   Mary dedicated her professional life to serving others as a pharmacist with CVS, a career she truly loved. She was known for her compassion, professionalism, and genuine desire to help others. Through her work, she touched countless lives and earned the admiration of coworkers and customers alike.
   Outside of her career, Mary found joy in nurturing both plants and people. She loved gardening and took great pride in her flowers and outdoor spaces. An avid reader, she could often be found with a book in hand, always eager to learn or become immersed in a good story. Family and friends will especially remember her incredible homemade baked goods. Her from-scratch recipes became treasured traditions, filling gatherings with warmth, comfort, and love.
   Mary’s kindness, strength, generosity, and sense of humor will be dearly missed. While her family mourns her loss, they also celebrate a life well lived—a life marked by compassion, hard work, friendship, and unconditional love. The memories she created, the lessons she taught, and the love she shared will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew her. She will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.

Guestbook

  1. My older sister Mary Where do I begin I wasn’t ready for this however it’s now time for you to rest and be with family and friends that also have passed. I have wonderful memories to hold near and dear to my heart ❤️
    Love you,
    Beth your youngest sister

  2. I was fortunate to know your mom from my teenage years, and she became one of those awesome people whose kindness you never forget. She always welcomed me with warmth, a smile, and some of the best homemade cookies I’ve ever had. Her laugh was contagious and could brighten even the toughest day.
    As teenagers, we certainly gave her plenty of reasons to shake her head. She often knew we were up to no good before we ever admitted it, and I can still picture her shaking her head when we wiped out the schnapps and refilled it with water. Yet she always met our shenanigans with patience, understanding, and forgiveness after the lecture. She had a remarkable ability to see the best in people.
    As we grew older and became parents ourselves, that kindness never changed. When my boys were young, she always answered my calls and patiently listened to my questions. Her wisdom, encouragement, and willingness to help meant more than she probably ever knew. She was someone I could count on, and I am so grateful for the care and guidance she shared.
    Your mom touched so many lives through her generosity, compassion, and genuine love for others. I will always remember her smile, laughter, her kindness, and the way she made people feel welcomed and cared for.
    My heart goes out to your family Andee. May the countless memories of her love and the many lives she touched bring you comfort in the days ahead.
