Obituary

Terri Ellen Keller was born on August 18, 1956, in Carson City, Nevada. She passed away on May 7, 2022 in Chandler, Oklahoma at the age of 65. Terri lived in California growing up and most of her young adult life. She fell in love, got married, and planted her roots in Oklahoma. She was a mother to two daughters: Tara (Keller) Lynn and Tessa Keller, a grandmother to eight beautiful grandchildren, a friend to many, and loved by everyone who met her.

Terri enjoyed the sunshine and being outdoors. Summer and spring were her favorite. She was often found gardening and working on her yard.  If the sun was shining, she was in her swimsuit and shorts outside doing something. She loved cooking and was always the designated camp cook when the family took their camping trips. She loved animals and was always finding some injured bird or cat and nursing it back to health. Terri had a helping heart and helped many people in her 65 years of life. She helped raise many kids. She was often referred to as ''Crazy Terri" because she was always dancing to country music. She always had a smile on her face (a smile that everyone who knew her is going to miss dearly) and a great sense of humor.

Terri never talked about her childhood much. She didn't have the easiest life growing up. Her struggles made her have the biggest heart, a generous heart.  She was the definition of selfless. There isn't anyone who she wouldn't help. She was the best at making something out of nothing.  She gave so many kids the best memories of their life. She was an amazing mama and loved her two girls more than anything.

She is going to be greatly missed by many. She is no longer suffering and has joined her daughter Tara in heaven.

Survivors include her daughter Tessa Keller and partner Derrick Holmes, son-in-law Eddie Lynn, sister Kristy Cook, and brother John Schepp and wife Debbie. She is also survived by her eight grandchildren: Shelby Lynn, Jacie Lynn, Gracie Lynn, Wyatt Lynn, Luke Lynn, Summer Keller, Kaston Keller, and Clayton Keller. Terri was preceded in death by her parents, daughter Tara Lynn, sister Debbie Schepp, father-in-law Ron Keller, and brother-in-law Darrin Blackwell.

A memorial service will be held on Friday, May 13, 2022 at 11:00 A.M. at the Hayes Funeral Home Chapel with Pastor Greg Hudson officiating.

Services are under the direction of Hayes Funeral Home.
