Terrie was preceded in death by her father, Richard Melton; mother, Jean Ashlock; brothers, Richard Melton, and Kelly Melton; and nephew, Les Erlinger.

Terrie was the heart and soul of her family, who were all so grateful for the bonds of love, good times and friendship they shared. She was known for hosting huge get-togethers with ease, planning the best cookouts for fourth of July, where all her family enjoyed good food, fun and made lasting memories. Terrie loved being outdoors and the adventures she had while hunting and fishing. She especially looked forward to deer season and everyone knew she would come home with a deer every year. Terrie couldn't have loved her fur babies, her dogs, Lucky and Ginger more. They were her constant companions and gave her unconditional love. Terrie's love and support she gave her family was deeply appreciated and will never be forgotten.
