Terry Bea Morris, of Russell Springs, passed away on Thursday, August 4, 2022. She was 60 years of age.
Terry was born May 10, 1962, in Cincinnati, a twin daughter born to the late Jerry Franklin Morris and Ruby Loisene McDonald Morris. Upon graduating high school in 1980, Terry was awarded a full scholarship to Berea College.

She worked as an accounting clerk and administrative assistant at the University of Kentucky, in Lexington. She had church families at University Heights, Jamestown and Patterson Chapel Churches of Christ.
Terry was soft-spoken but very witty and at times very talkative. Terry was especially thoughtful and like to buy gifts for others. Terry had no children of her own but genuinely loved children. She was an excellent cook much like her mother Ruby. Additionally, Terry enjoyed attending church, reading, spending time with friends and family and her twin sister, Sherry. Terry was a lover of both cats and dogs and is survived by her dog, Yoda who she helped to spoil immensely.
