Terese “Teri” Marie Shiflett, 68, of Huntington, IN, passed away peacefully after a courageous battle with cancer in the company of her family at 3:20 am Wednesday, November 22, 2023, at her residence. Teri was born on November 23, 1954, in Berwyn, IL, the daughter of William Boyd and Kathleen (McBride) Boyd. She graduated from Jupiter Junior Senior High School with the class of 1972 and continued her education at Oklahoma State University where she studied sign language and became an interpreter. Teri married her soulmate Robert “Jack” Jackson Shiflett on December 26, 1981, in St. Charles, MO. Teri was a faithful member of Faith Community Church of Huntington and was ordained through Assemblies of God. She retired from Indiana District Assembly of God after 11 years of service. Teri was passionate about spreading the word of God to the children in Huntington County and co-founded a religious educational program called By the Book. She worked as a secretary and the women's ministry coordinator at every church she attended, as well as the Children’s Pastor at Messiah Ministries in Oklahoma. Teri was a devote wife, mother, grandmother, and Christian. She felt blessed to be called into ministry and was honored to serve. When Teri wasn’t busy doing ministry work, she looked forward to her annual trip to Gatlinburg, TN, with her husband every fall. She was an avid St. Louis Cardinal’s fan and enjoyed going to the games. Teri was crafty and creative, rather it be painting with watercolors or making glass beads she wanted everything to be colorful. She had a lot of wonderful talents she enjoyed sharing with others. Teri had many job titles throughout her life but none of them meant as much to her as being called Momo (Grandma), she adored her grandchildren more than anything else.
