Terrianne (Day) Gaines-Her World!


I attended Seattle Pacific College (now University) after high school, and was graduated with a BA in music and education in 1974. I met my husband, Tom, in the college orchestra. We were married in July, 1974. I taught school for one year while he worked as a chemical engineer at Boeing. He then attended the UW School of Medicine. After being graduated from med school, we moved to El Paso, TX, where he completed a 5 year General Surgery residency at the Army Hospital there. From there, we lived outside Neurnberg, Germany for 2 years. Then we spent 2 years in Washington, D.C., where he completed a Fellowship in Cardio Thoracic Surgery. We finished up "our" time in the military in Denver, CO. In 1990, we moved to Knoxville, TN. where he has been a practicing heart surgeon for almost 20 years now.We have 4 children. Our oldest lives in Seattle. Her husband is a computer guy there. They have 2 daughters. Our second daughter lives in Huntsville, AL. Her husband does computer security for the U.S. Army at the Red Stone Arsenal. They have 2 girls and 2 boys. Our third daughter is soon leaving Raleigh, N.C., where her husband has completed - and become board certified in -- veterinary radiology. They will be moving to Nashville, TN. at the end of June. They have 2 sons. Our son is currently serving, again, in Iraq. They are stationed at Ft. Lewis. They have no children.

Editor's Note: Of course they met in the orchestra! We should get Terrianne to play a note or two at the reunion!
