Obituary for Terry Ann Gill (July 4, 1959 – February 14, 2026)

Terry Ann Gill, of Orange, Texas, passed away peacefully with her step-daughter by her side on February 14, 2026. Born in Tacoma, Washington, Terry lived a life filled with love, resilience, and devotion to the people and animals she cherished.

She is preceded in death by her beloved husband, Ronnie E. Gill, Sr., the love of her life and her partner in every sense. Her story took her from Washington and California to Texas, where Ronnie and Terry built a life rooted in loyalty, laughter, and deep companionship.

Terry is survived by her beloved and adored dogs Buddy, Tank, and Angel, who were constant sources of joy and comfort. She is also survived by her sisters LaVonne Timm of Port Hueneme, California; Sharon Kristovich of Spanaway, Washington; and Sherry Smith of Spanaway, Washington; her daughter Brandy Jackson, of Washington; and her step‑daughter Christina Kaczor of Texas, all of whom will forever hold her memory close.

Known for her fierce love of animals, Terry had a special bond with every creature she met. She was a proud NASCAR fan—especially of Dale Earnhardt Sr. and Jr.—and she found peace and satisfaction in tending to her yard, then relaxing in the pool she loved so much.

Terry was tough, spirited, and unwaveringly loyal. Her family will miss her deeply and will forever remember her strength, her humor, and the love she gave so freely.

May her memory be a blessing to all who knew her.

Condolences

Aunt Terry, you will be missed more than words can express. You were strong, fearless, and truly a force to be reckoned with — but your strength was always rooted in love. I will always cherish the time we were able to spend with you. While our hearts ache for the loss we feel here, there is comfort in knowing you are no longer in pain and are resting in a place of peace. May God wrap you in His arms, Aunt Terry, and may you rest peacefully until we meet again.

Terry spoke her mind and was full of love. We miss her deeply, but her memory lives on in every story shared, every laugh remembered, and every life she touched. Rest easy, Terry. Your love and strength will stay with us always.

Terry once sent me a picture of a skeleton sitting on the porch and the caption read “This is me waiting for you to come visit” needless to say we visited shortly after, that was years ago. Terry and I spent priceless time together in July of 2025. Terry you’ll always be my butt head!!
