Terry was born on July 29, 1964, to the late Mary and Ivey Wright. She loved to swim, go to gospel concerts as well as listening to gospel music, going fishing, and playing card games on her phone. Most importantly, Terry cherished all the moments she got to spend with her family and friends, but most importantly, her grandchildren. Her grandchildren, Christina and Bubba held a special place in her heart, and she would always put her pain aside to love them. She will be missed dearly by many.

She is predeceased by her parents, Mary and Ivey Wright; grandparents, Margaret and James Farmer, and Estelle and Otto Wright; brother, Barry Wright; grandson, Johnny Edward Cheney; and brother-in-law, James Martiny.
The family would also like to say a special thanks to the ones who helped care for Terry during this time; her husband, daughter, Susan Hines and Mary Martiny; along with Agape Hospice in Summerville, SC.
