Terry L. Minderman, known affectionately as “Mimi” to those closest to her, passed into the arms of our Savior on October 10, 2023, at the age of 64. Born on March 7, 1959, in Warrenton, VA, Terry was a resilient spirit who faced life’s challenges with courage and fortitude, an inspiration to all who knew her. Her vibrant, spirited personality and compassionate nature were the pillars of her character, leaving an indelible mark on everyone whose life she touched.
Terry was an Administrative Assistant by profession, where she spent her years in service at Vincennes University and Indiana University. However, she was not defined solely by her career. Her life was a testament to love, generosity, and unwavering support. Terry’s world revolved around her grandchildren; their joy was her joy, their triumphs were her triumphs. Her hobbies reflected her love for simplicity and joy in the little things. She cherished the hours spent reading a good book or delighting in a captivating movie, but most of all, she relished the moments spent with her beloved grandchildren.
Terry is survived by her sons, Chris Minderman (Jennifer) and Jason Hendricks; her grandchildren, Gavin Hendricks, Colton Minderman, and Elle Minderman; her step-father, Jim (Shirley) Harrison; and her sister, Kelly Earley. She is preceded in death by her husband, Matthew Minderman, and her father, Donald Early.
