Terry's Story
Life
After high school, I went to Stephen F. Austin State University with my 4 best friends, Ginny Hill, Susan Johns, Teri Wetmore, and Sue Jones. In May of 1974, I married my high school sweetheart, Tommy Dennis. You may remember he drove a green Dodge Superbee. I graduated in Dec. 1974 and began teaching in Rusk, Texas in the fall of 1975. We returned to Houston in 1977 and I taught in Aldine and Klein. We have two children. Our daughter, Tamra, is 25, married, has two sons, Hunter-4 and Cody-3, and will be a Dec. 2005 graduate of Texas A & M! Our son, Torry Scott, is 20 and a business/psychology major at Texas A& M. He is a sophomore. He is rooming with three of his best friends this fall. He enjoys guitar and piano and plans to start a Christian band. I have been teaching in special education for 29 years! I teach at Rockdale Elementary in Rockdale, Texas. Tommy and I moved to Milano in 1989. This is where his mom and dad grew up. We are living on his grandfather's farm raising limousin cattle. (City kids gone country!) We call it the Four Bar T ranch. Tommy's parents live up here too. My parents and my brother, Dick, and his family are living in Tomball, Texas. He is the minister of Tomball United Methodist Church. (Dr. Richard White)
We have enjoyed raising our children in a small town. And feel very blessed to have our health and our family, especially, the grandsons! If you are ever in central Texas give us a call. There are only 2 Dennis' in the Rockdale phone book! Or write! We wil...Expand for more
l write back.
Aug 23, 2015 A lot has happened in the past 10 years. Most recently the passing of Tommy. He died suddenly June 22 of a massive heart attack. We miss him. He always had a way of making us smile. He loved the country life. I retired from teaching but now I fill in as a regular substitute and often sub long term. School starts tomorrow and I will be the junior high inclusion teacher.
Tamra, now 35, is a teacher and on track to be the principal next year at the charter school. Her oldest, Hunter, begins high school, Cody will be an 8th grader and Blake begins 2nd grade.. She and her husband Stephen bought a lovely home in Rockdale 2 years ago. They are a wonderful source of support. I think Stephen likes riding the tractor, which is a good thing.
Torry and Hanna live in Charleston, SC with their 2 children Will and Aubrey, finally got our granddaughter 18 months ago! And baby boy Dennis is due January 1st! Torry has his PHD in neuroscience and is working at the Medical University of Charleston in addiction research. Hanna is a full time mom and part time physicians assistant.
My brother Dick, served as the district superintendent over the Beaumont district of the Texas Methodist Conference for the past 6 years. He was appointed senior minister of First United Methodist Church of Katy this past June. He just became a grandad this past Wed. for the second time.
I am blessed with a loving family, lots of caring friends, and an active church family.
Blessings to you and yours, Terry
