Teri Smith Memorial/Medical/End of life cost.

Donation protected
My father wrote this in commemoration of my mother. “I’m deeply saddened to announce the passing of my loving wife, Teri (Teresa) Smith who passed away on Thursday 03/05/2020 at 1:35 pm."

"We met each other in Carpinteria CA. Junior High school in 1969. Teri then moved to Santa Barbara CA., l joined the US Navy. We rejoined each other after I was discharged from the Navy. We then married in Teri’s parent's back yard in 1976. She gave birth to Nathan and Jeffery Smith. We happily lived in Santa Barbara CA. for 13 years. Then moved to Lompoc CA, where Nathan and Jeffery graduated high school. Nathan joined the Navy like his father. Teri and l then moved to Rio Rancho NM in 1999. Jeffery soon followed to NM. Teri was very active at VFW Post 5890 where she was a three-term Women's Auxiliary President.  Teri lost her brief and beautiful life to terminal cancer.  Teri and I had a great, 43 years of life together full of love and laughter. She will dearly be missed by my son’s and I.

In loving memory."
