Terri Lynn Bowen
August 2, 1970 - May 15, 2020
Terri Lynn Bowen, age 49, of Wilmington, DE, passed away unexpectedly at her residence on Friday, May 15, 2020.
Born in Wilmington, DE on August 2, 1970, she was a daughter of Edward and the late Elinda (Siemers) Dandridge. After graduation from Mt. Pleasant High School, Terri went on to work for BCD Travel, formerly Rosenbluth, where she dedicated the past 30 years as an Immigration Travel Coordinator.
Terri loved travelling where she fulfilled her lifelong dream of visiting Norway. She enjoyed cooking, baking, photography, and most of all, spending time with friends, family, and her beloved four legged companion, Princess.
In addition to her mother, Terri was preceded in death by her sister, Lori Blum. She will be dearly missed by her daughters, Amanda and Danielle Bowen; father, Edward Dandridge; brother, Steven Dandridge; former husband, Charles Bowen; and several nieces, nephews, and dear friends.
All services will be held privately. A memorial service celebrating Terri’s life will be held at a later date.

I love you mommy Rest In Peace . This life is so hard now . Please watch over me and hold my hand and continue to guide me through this crazy life . Your my bestfriend and always will be .
Amanda Bowen
I love you Mommy. I am so blessed to be your daughter and I’m thankful that you’re my mom. Life just isn’t fair and I’ll never understand why our time had to be cut short. My heart is truly broken and nothing will ever be the same- but I hope you know that you were my entire world, my backbone, my biggest support system, my bestfriend, my WHOLE heart, and life will truly never be the same without you. What am I supposed to do without you? Who am I going to call and bother 800 times a day. Or have movie/spa night dates with. Or go to Chikfila and come back and watch movies with all night. Ugh I just can’t do this without you. I know you would want me and Danielle to be strong and to make you proud and I promise we will continue to do just that. I’m everything I am today because you loved me. I am going to miss you so so so so much and I’m not sure how I’ll be able to live this life without you, please keep watching over me and guide me through these difficult times. I need you. I love you Mom. Fly high with the angels.

Amanda, Danielle and family. So very sorry for your loss. Terri was truly a beautiful woman inside and out. She was always so helpful with passports/visas when I worked at DuPont/Chemours. We chatted often about family and I enjoyed hearing about you girls and so enjoyed the pictures of your trip to Norway. Our Facebook interactions also involved our families. Your mother’s love will live on in the hearts of those she’s left behind. Rest assured, she is watching over her beloved family from above. We’ll never understand why God brought her home. May the love and prayers of all who knew your beautiful Mom help you all during this sad time. God bless.

Tessa Bosch
To the amazing woman that raise two fabulous girls. I am so sad to hear of your passing. Please know, you left behind an amazing legacy by teaching your girls to be independent even in times of strife, self – sacrificing in times of need, intellegence in times of uncertainty, and ultimately, what it means to be a friend. This is every Mom’s wish, when she leaves the earth, that she created strong women that will persevere even in times of sadness. You did that Terri, you prepared them to face anything that happens to them in thier life, including this.
Bowen Family, I am praying for you at this time. I hope your heart stops hurting in time, and smiles at all the memories that Terri created for you. I love you! Be strong like the women your Mom raised you to be! Know that she will always be proud of you!

I only knew Terri for a very short time, but I immediately discovered she was one of the most genuinely caring people I’d ever met. She loved with her whole heart. I’m sorry she won’t be here to meet my babies on the way. She was almost as excited to meet them as I am. That’s how much she cared about others. I wish her peace in the next life. And I hope she knows that the love that she spread in this world will live on.
JoAnn Smythe
I will always remember Terry and her beautiful smile. Whenever, I had any International travel issues Terri went above and beyond to assist me. She was always pleasant and very friendly. I will truly miss her. God Bless.
