Todd’s daughter, Savannah Christly, also remembered Terry with a heartfelt Instagram post saying, “It’s been such a hard day today and all I wanna do is pick up the phone and call you and hear that laugh of yours … You always had a way about you that’s honestly indescribable … You were the definition of a true angel.”

With that, Savannah tells Terry she doesn’t want to say goodbye. Instead, she says, “I’ll see you when it’s my time to come home. You better be waiting with your amazing hugs and that crazy infectious laugh.”
