Her children’s friends knew her as “Mama T”. She was an incredibly talented artist who loved to draw and paint. Terri worked over twenty years as a caterer supplying food for many local events such as the yearly St. Rita’s Sunday Barbeque. In her spare time, Terri enjoyed shopping (especially yard sales) and going to the casino. She was involved in the community with Kiwanis where she formerly served as president.
Terri will be missed by her children, James (Tracy) Tyson of Grand Rapids, MI; and Travis (Morgan) Tyson of Brooklyn, MI; her parents Kenneth and Margaret Skiver; siblings, Ken Skiver, Jr. of Brooklyn, MI; and Kim (Dennis) Still of Sand Creek, MI; and a grandchild, Aeryn Tyson.
