Obituary

Jennifer Erin Terry, born on March 29, 1972, in Ponca City, Oklahoma, passed away on July 26, 2025, leaving behind a vibrant legacy filled with love, laughter, and inspiration. Jenny, a devoted educator, dedicated 27 years of her life to the Milwaukee Public Schools as a Spanish teacher. She cared deeply for each of her students, embracing them as her own children and fostering a passion for learning that would resonate throughout their lives.

Jenny's adventurous spirit extended beyond the classroom. She was passionate about gardening, delighting in the beauty of nature and nurturing her plants with the same dedication she showed her students. Jenny also had a creative side; she crafted exquisite resin jewelry, enjoyed painting, and often found joy in redecorating her home, where her love of peacocks was beautifully displayed. Known for always adornment with lipstick, she brought a touch of elegance to every aspect of her life.

She is survived by her devoted mother, Betty Terry; her beloved, Tony Nesta; her sister, Sean and her family, Mark and McKenzie; her sister, Nicole and her family, Damien, Courtney, and Stephen; Jennifer also leaves behind "her littles," Rocky and Dolly, who will miss her dearly.

A celebration of Jenny's extraordinary life will be held on August 9, 2025, at the Prasser-Kleczka Funeral Homes Bay View Chapel. The memorial visitation will take place from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM, followed by the memorial service at 1:00 PM. Jennifer will be remembered not only for her commitment to education but also for her radiant personality and unyielding spirit.

Jennifer's presence in our lives was a gift that will be cherished forever. May her vibrant energy and passion continue to inspire us all.

Jennifer was preceded in death by her dad, Nicholas Terry.
