July 2017 – Passage. While growing up in Springville, Utah, the center of Dana Sue Scott Terry universe was her parents, Rita and Park Scott and her brother Jerry. In the fall of 1959, she married Jon Terry and together they had three daughters Shayne, Regan and Erin. Thought their marriage lasted 14 years, their love and respect for one another lasted a lifetime.
Dana was employed as a part-time tax preparer at a new accounting concept called “H&R Block” and quickly rose to the top, teaching H&R Block’s first tax training schools in addition to opening and managing multiple branch offices as the company grew in Sat Lake County. Tax preparation remained her passion as she continued to prepare taxes until her final year.
Leaving H&R Block behind, she manage IBEW Credit Union. She took the Credit Union from a simple savings and loan to a full service banking institution, complete with checking, credit cards, home equity and mortgage loans, and a membership that grew exponentially. Dana was instrumental in the transition from paper and pencil accounting to computer banking.
While at the Credit Union, Dana worked taxes from her home, not because she needed the money, but because she enjoyed the taxpayers. Dana liked to learn, she liked finances, and she loved helping people so it was no surprise when she became a real estate agent as well. Dana individualized her approach with each and every person she served, and often counted her clients among her friends.
She considered however, her main priority was being a mother. In fact she did it so well, her children decided it was time for a promotion. Still her thirties, she became a grandmother and later a great grandmother.
As the family reflects upon Dana, this is how they sum up her life, “Thank you for our family. Thank you for amazing Christmases. Thank you for putting butter on everything. Thank you for insisting chocolate was the first taste to touch our palates. Thank you giving us the gift of play through cards and games. Thank you for bringing laughter and joy into our lives and teaching us that humor can make any situation better. Thank you for allowing us to be individuals and to believe in ourselves. Thank you for giving us Sunday School, and with it the knowledge that we are not alone and there is a greater power. Thank you for letting us define that greater power for ourselves. Thank you for giving us the wisdom, the love, and the courage to hold our heads up high and move through this world with only your memory. Thank you for being our mom, our grandma, our friend. We love you so very, very much.”
According to her obituary published in the Salt Lake Tribune, July 23, 2017, “Her time here was filled with the things she valued most – family, friends, laughter and success.” The family celebrated her love with a brief service followed by an open house on Saturday, August 5, 2017.
