Teresa Marie Lee, 63, of Prince Frederick, MD was welcomed into the Kingdom of Heaven on September 16, 2016, with her family by her side in her beautiful home on the Chesapeake Bay. Her final weeks were spent surrounded by family and people who loved her dearly. Terri was born in Cairo, Egypt on March 28, 1953, to her late parents, James Michael Keys and Dolores Cejka Keys. She is survived by her children James Lee (Elena Rosa), Christy Lee, and Daphne Inman, and siblings, Thomas Keys, Mary Jean Hurst (Ron), Kathy Keys (Dan Peterson), Joanne Keys (Rusty Schweickart), Betty Bancroft (Bob), and James Keys (Deanna).
Terri had the special ability to connect with those around her, and she leaves a lasting impact on all those who had the privilege of knowing her. Her strength, determination, love and kindness were evident to all and a true example of how to live and treat those around you.
Terri cherished spending time with family and friends and loved caring for and enjoying the natural world around her, especially her flowers and birdies. She was always up for new adventures, and her motto, no matter what came her way in life, was “Let Go and Let God.”
The family will receive friends at Trinity United Methodist Church, 90 Church St. Prince Frederick, MD 20678, on Thursday, September 22, 2016, from 6-8 PM, and the funeral service will be held at the same location on Friday, September 23, at 11 AM.
