Terri LaNell Lange White

Terri LaNell Lange White, age 61, of Tabor, TX, went to be with the Lord on August 22, 2022 at 2:06 pm.
 
She was born September 28, 1960 to Phillip Wayne Lange and Gladys LaNell Wilson in Bryan, Texas.
 
Terri attended Bryan High School and graduated in 1978. After high school, she started working in office buildings and other companies doing accounts payable until she became Chief Deputy Treasure of Brazos County where she remained for 33 years. Thanks to her planning and organization, she retired at the age of 56.
 
In 1982 she married the love of her life, Carey E. White. She made their first apartment as a married couple into a home in one night while Carey was at work. Together they spent 42 amazing years.
 
She was the “it” person everyone in their life. She once worked almost a week to find 5 cents out of 20 million dollars… and she found it! She had so many come to her for help, and with a willing and capable, she always found a way to help.
 
Anyone who ever met her, loved her. She was so valuable to Brazos County that when she announced she was retiring, they found someone to take the job so she could give them a full year of training so her knowledge wouldn’t be lost.
 
Terri loved antiquing, flee markets, her small dogs and helping people. Her friends and family held a special place in her heart, and the cross country trips she made with them will forever be sweet memories kept in their hearts.
 
Carey, her husband, wants people to remember by this: she had a heart as big as Texas.
She is survived by her parents, Wayne and LaNell Lange of Hearne, her loving husband, Carey E. White of Hearne, her brother, Loyd Lange and his wife Margret of Tabor. Loyd and Margret were always there for her and her very special niece, Jessica Gilliam, Lacy Lange, Marshall Lange, Kenny White and many more including many cousins, and friends.
 
She is preceded in death by, her sister, Pam Gilliam, her aunt, Sandra Gibson and many other relatives.
 
If there is one thing you can learn from the life of Terri let It be this, always keep your heart open and be willing to help others.
