Teresa Elizabeth Kinman was born on October 28, 1947 in Montevideo, Minnesota, the daughter of Vernon and Audrey (Blom) Jahn. She was baptized at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church as an infant. In 1952, Terry moved with her family to Corona, California and began school there. They later moved to San Jose, California where she was confirmed at St. John Vianney Church and she also attended the James Lick High School. She graduated with the Class of 1965 from Overfelt High School in San Jose, California.
Terry was united in marriage to Larry Kinman on November 23, 1968 at St. John Vianney Church in San Jose, California. She went to school for drafting and took a job designing the trailers that hauled liquid oxygen. She did data processing at Lake Tahoe. Terry and Larry moved back to Montevideo in 1990. She continued working outside the home at various places doing many different things through the years. One of the last places she worked was at an assisted living home where she would help others with their cares and Terry would even bring the residents home with her for the holidays.
Terry enjoyed painting and drawing. She would talk to anyone she met and if you combined it with a cup of coffee, Terry was in her element. She had a big heart and cared for others. At any time, she would drop what she was doing just to help another and many times thru the years she would open her homes to kids that needed a spot. Terry enjoyed bantering back and forth and had many witty comebacks.
