Terri Brodeur
Breast
Cancer Foundation.
Terri Brodeur was born in New London, Connecticut. Terri was one of five siblings, a perennial "teacher's pet" in grade school right through High School where, enjoyed dance and band. She was a shy, quiet girl. Terri kept a few close friends during her teen years. Ever the optimist, her senior quote in the Waterford High yearbook read, "When all else fails, smile." Meeting her soul-mate, freshman year at UConn. After having her two daughters and son, Terri took time out from her career to focus on her family. Terri was an active volunteer in the elementary school system, local parish and Girl Scouts.
In 2003, with great shock and sadness Terri was diagnosed with Stage IV breast cancer. How this could happen to someone so young at age 39, so vibrant, and so healthy. Over the next two-plus years Terri battled the cancer always with high spirits, but eventually was defeated. She left behind a legacy of courage and love that will never be forgotten by those fortunate enough to know her.
Smith Insurance is proud to have the Terri Brodeur Breast Cancer Foundation as our featured charity for the months of July and August. 100% of Donations go directly toward breast cancer research.
