Obituary

Emily Terrell Pettit Bane, "Terry" passed peacefully in her sleep January 22, 2025, at the age of 83. Terry is survived by her four children, Lisa Hull, Tracy Ormand, Tony Bane and Leslie Bane and brother, James Harlan Lillard Pettit.  She was blessed with six grandchildren, Emily Salmon and Aubrey Hull, Reese Ormand and Haley Moores, Gavin Bane and Kylie Bane, and eight great-grandchildren.

Terry was preceded in death by her husband, Robert Bane, son Russell Bane, mother Kathryn Pettit, father Harlan Pettit and granddaughter Haley Moores.

Terry was born in Denton, Texas to Harlan Pettit and Kathryn Lillard Pettit on March 3, 1941 and was raised in Denton, Texas. Terry grew up in a loving family in the very house she lived in with her husband Robert and her children. She was creative from an early age especially in piano and became quite accomplished. Terry was popular all throughout her school years with many friends becoming lifelong. Terry was a great listener, and her quiet reflective demeanor, wicked dry humor and nonjudgmental personality resulted in a beautiful genteel lady who is loved by so many. After Terry married Robert in December 1959, she devoted her life to being a loving wife and a wonderful homemaker, becoming a gourmet cook. Terry worked many years as a Legal Secretary in Denton.  Terry also loved animals. She had many beloved dogs, birds and cats. She was a great mother who nurtured, loved and encouraged all her children. Words cannot express how much Terry will be missed by her family and friends.
