Terri's Cancer Fund
Donation protected
Prayers and support are needed for our dearest friend and 9-1-1 dispatcher who spent her 35 year career caring for others and who is now battling a vicious fight of her own - cancer. We have created this account for Terri to help raise money for an in home care provider.
As the director of a regional dispatch center in Pullman, WA and her former boss, I can tell you thatTerri Bryan is not only an incredible dispatcher, supervisor and manager, she was a mentor for all those who were fortunate enough to be placed in her care. Located in Pullman, WA, home of Washington State University, she helped many a Cougar - students, old and new alike, not to mention visiting fans and alumni. She even helped those who weren’t Cougar fans! During her off hours she was a single mother to many, many teenage foster children with nowhere to turn, some who were actually adopted by Terri. When she finally made the choice to retire and devote her time to her foster children, many who became successful young adults under her guidance, shealso, unexpectedly, took on the role of caregiver to her ailing sister. Now, while undergoing cancer treatment she is weak and unable to care for herself. We are creating a Go Fund Me account to help raise money in hopes that we can give back a small piece of what she gave us. Terri has given so much to our lives and kept many an officer and responder out of harm’s way that we could only hope this small gesture could somehow portray how much she has meant to all of us. Whether you know Terri or not, believe that she was an advocate for all, helping to pave the way for others wishing to pursue a career in 9-1-1. She is struggling -Please help us help Terri – every penny will help!
