Obituary of Terri O'Connell-Waring

Terri was a loving woman who enjoyed modeling, fashion and the art of life itself. She was a strong, independent woman who truly lived her life to the fullest. Professionally, Terri excelled in interior design, customer service, and Real Estate sales. Clients became fast and lasting friends as she never met a stranger. She will always be cherished, remembered and missed by her close, ever-loving family and many friends. Terri is survived by her parents, Ron and Aggie O'Connell; sister, Laura Baciu; brothers, Tom (Lorna) O'Connell and Jeff O'Connell; sisters, Beth O'Connell and Kelly (Bob) McGrath; son, Chris Waring; granddaughter, Shelby Waring; nieces and nephews, Nick, Meghan, Courtney, Daniel, Caitlyn, Mallory, Leah, Luke, Ashley, Colin and Alyssa; and 14 great nieces and nephews, who all loved and adored their Aunt TeeTee. She was the oldest cousin of 50+ first cousins and paved the road for all of them, especially by being the first on the dance floor! And we cannot forget her adorable Zoey (ZoZo) who gave her many years of happiness. Due to the coronavirus, a private family ceremony will take place on Saturday, March 21 at Charlotte Memorial Funeral Home. Extended family and friends are encouraged to attend a Celebration of Terri's Life once public gatherings resume. Details will be announced as they become available. In the meantime, condolences and memories may be shared with the family on this page. For information on selecting and sending flowers, please see below.
