| I had been phoning Terrea about once a month just to keep in touch and the last time I called she couldn't talk she said she had had a fall and was trying to sleep. I wish I had phoned her on Sunday. I was going to but got busy with other stuff...much less important stuff and I neglected to call her. At least she went peacefully in her sleep. In the Aramaic Language (the language of Jesus) the word for death is muta (Pronounced Mota) and it means, Not here present elsewhere. I know she is sing with the angles and has reunited with B.J. and Sue and her own Mother. I truely loved her. She and B.J. had taken such good care of me when I worked at the Garret.

Terrea, some friends and I were chatting online about our days breaking into the music biz, in Hollywood in the 60s, and of course your name came up. You were so good to so many of us. So I did some googling around and found this site.
Whoops. I just noticed the post about Terrea's "condition" from 5 years ago. I hope this love note isn't past due. Now I have to look around and see what's up. But this is a love note. The encouragement I got at the Garret in the mid 60s led me to a life in music that I love. |

Hi, I wonder if any of the old crowd would like contact.
Drop me a line if you have a few minutes. I am glad to have The Garret to go home to,and to reminisce. May it live forever. |

| Lived next door to Terrea's mom growing up and couldn't wait to get my driver's license so I could drive to the Garret to hear her whenever I wanted. It was worth the wait. It was so long ago now but I still remember some of it like it was yesterday. |

| Aunt Suzie and BJ would come to Vegas, every so often, and I always had the best time with them. As a young teen I was treated by them as someone special and I never forgot the quality time spent in their presence. When I was 16, Grandma Louise and George came to Vegas and got married. This was when Aunt Suzie and BJ taught me their blackjack betting system. We played for hours and for pennies. Great fun and greater people. They had a big, positive impact on me and left a seed of warmth in my soul. I was lucky to have had them in my life. Love them, Carson |

| Hello, I am Suzie's step-neice. Lived with Louise from age 2-9 in San Diego. Visited Suzie and BJ in L.A. when I was young and the Garret. I have the greatest memories, loved that house on the hill. I also visited the three of you in Vista, rounding up snails and collecting eggs. I miss you all so much, can't tell you how much and how often I think of you, how cute you all were making those donuts when I would see you in Las Vegas. RIP Suzie and BJ, and take care Terrea, I'm sure they're waiting patiently for you. Love you, Melanie Smith |

| I first heard "The First Time Ever" and "It Was A Very Good Year" sung by Terrea in 1964 and went to the Garrett regularly. I loved that nobody was drunk and that the music was enough of a thrill. I went looking for the Garret after it was closed and felt a huge sadness that it was gone. Thanks so much for bringing this site and those memories back for me. |

| I enjoyed going to the Garret Coffee House so much. Lived in Leimert Park but had many friends in the valley or n. Hollywood and we'd meet at the Garret...from '59 until '63 for me. |
