In 2011, Terry Minkler was a godsend for my partner and me when we were packing to move across the country. We were faced with having to downsize our entire house. Terry created an efficient process even as we parted with our things. She had a way of not letting me get bogged down by the enormity of it all by keeping me task-focused. She was compassionate while giving me tough love.  I was both an emotional wreck and the house was a mess before she got there, but when she left, boxes were labeled, organized for arrival, and I felt at ease. Terry has a rare talent of making chaos into order.
