Terri's obituary
Terri Andrews, 69, of Mims, FL, passed away peacefully on September 20, 2022 after a lifelong battle with Lupus.
Terri was born on September 16, 1953 to Paul and Pearl Newbert in Princeton, New Jersey. After spending most of her youth raising her younger siblings she moved to California to pursue a career as a vet technician. She worked in the field, saving the lives of hundreds of animals for over three decades.
In 1987, she met William Andrews, and they wed in 1993, going on to have 8 children, Joshua, Roger, Ryan, Preston, Aries, Sierra, Isis and Jacob Andrews.
When Terri had Joshua, she decided to dedicate her life to being a fantastic and wonderful mother.
Terri excelled at being the greatest and most supportive mother and wife for her family, supporting them through the many passions and difficulties of their lives. Whether that was helping her husband after he broke several ribs, or holding her daughters hand when she got cold feet on her wedding day, she made it her mission to improve the lives of others.
Terri had a green thumb and was a passionate gardner, growing many plants, and even her own vegetable garden. She could often be found singing to them, claiming it kept them happy and healthy.
When she wasn’t filling her home with warmth and kindness, she could be found in her back pasture grooming her horses and feeding her ladies (the chickens). We will miss her greatly.
Terri was predeceased by her parents Paul and Pearl Newbert, her aunt Elsie Schleismann, and her cousin Roger C Schleismann II. She is survived by her husband William Andrews, and all 8 of her children.
There will be a celebration of life at her home in the back pasture on September 26, 2022.
