IN SYMPATHY FOR OUR CLASSMATE JUNE HASH CURRY

Many of you still living in Ballinger probably knew JUNE's sister Myldred and her husband J.B. Terry.  If I am not mistaken, J.B. had a welding business in Ballinger for many years. I did not know Myldred, but I recall June telling me that she created beautiful stained glass images. In fact, Lange Funeral Home has a window of her creation.

If Myldred was in any way as sweet and good a person as JUNE, I know that she was much loved and will be missed terribly. May her family receive many prayers of comfort, and especially for our friend JUNE.

Myldred Ann Hash TerryMyldred Ann Hash Terry
(February 25, 1929 - January 22, 2015)

Myldred Ann (Hash) Terry passed from this life to her heavenly home on January 22, 2015. Myldred was born in Ballinger, Texas to J. R. and Bertie McGuire Hash on February 25, 1929.She was preceded in death by her parents; and brothers, Charles Ray and James Weldon.

Myldred is survived by her husband of 66 years, J.B. Terry of Ballinger; children, Gayle Corbin and husband Michael of Spring, TX, J. D. Terry and wife Janey of Pearland, TX, Kathy Terry of the home, and Lisa Baker and husband Dan of Round Rock, TX. She is also survived by a sister, June Curry of Edmund, OK, many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, and nephews. She is also survived by her “adopted” kids, B and Raji Ramadoss of San Angelo, TX.

Myldred has had a positive influence on many family and friends in her 85 years. She has mentored many young adults with her listening ear and wise advice and shared her talent unselfishly with all those who needed help.

Other than four to five years filing medical insurance, Myldred was a homemaker. She loved cooking and sewing for the family. She baked a birthday cake for an 80-year-old neighbor who had never had a birthday cake, and enjoyed that so much, she started decorating cakes for the public. She made many wedding cakes over a period of several years. In 1972 Myldred and J.B. took on a hobby, doing stained and leaded glass. The hobby got out of hand, and they opened a stained glass studio and built many windows for area churches and homes. Myldred loved the artistry of blending colors and choosing just the right design to create a masterpiece. She loved the beauty of God’s creation and masterfully used the array of stained glass to glorify Him in all their work.

Myldred always found a place of service wherever she was. She taught Sunday School for special needs children for over ten years at the Methodist Church in Ballinger and worked with the youth at First Baptist Church, Ballinger for many years. Myldred was best known as a “Prayer Warrior” by all those she loved and made request of her. She was a faithful member of The Heights Baptist Church in San Angelo. Myldred’s love for her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, is her greatest legacy and her greatest example.

Visitation will be at Lange Funeral Home in Ballinger on Sunday, January 25, from 5:00 to 7:00 pm. The memorial service will be held at The Heights Baptist Church, 4512 Sherwood Way, San Angelo on Monday, January 26, at 2:00 pm. Graveside service will be held in Evergreen Cemetery in Ballinger at 4:00 pm.

In lieu of flowers, the family request that donations be made in memory of Myldred to your favorite charity.

I have a brief update on PEGGY BRANHAM KRUMLINDE. She met with her preferred heart surgeon this past Wednesday. He wishes to determine if PEG will actually benefit from the mitral valve replacement. Two other doctors viewed her echocardiogram and indicated it was of too poor quality to make an accurate determination. Therefore, PEGGY was supposed to have another echocardiogram yesterday (Friday); has an appointment Monday with a cardiophysiologist; and back to her heart surgeon on Wednesday. (PEG said, "I am like a lost sheep - just go when and where they tell me!") He promised her that something will be definitely decided in 2- to 3-weeks. Hallelujah! She is ready to go shopping!

Kidding aside, let's all continue to hold PEGGY in prayer, and envision the perfect doctor, outcome, and insurance covering it all! I will keep you informed as I hear from her.

ADDENDUM: In the previous blog post about DORIS STOKES AND DON WHITE'S daughter's family losing all of their belongings in a terrible house fire, I didn't have their names. They are Dedra and Wayne Morrow, and the children's names are Mason, Garrison, and Graham. DORIS doesn't have email at this time, so if any of you wish to help the young family in any way, you might give her a call. She didn't ask for this, but I discovered that the house was a rental, and the landlord had insurance on it. I'm not certain if the contents were covered.

You might want to read the previous blog again, as I added information that was given to me after I published it. 

Until next time,

Love and peace,
Marilyn
