Terry Lee Palacios' Obituary
Terry Lee Palacios, beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away peacefully on June 30, 2025, in Dallas, Texas, at the age of 65.
Born on March 14, 1960, Terry brought warmth, creativity, and unwavering love into the lives of all who knew her. A proud Dallas native, she found joy in the little things—cheering on her Dallas Stars, surrounding herself with beautiful art and florals, and always putting others before herself. Her generosity was endless, her heart unguarded, and her love fierce and unconditional. Whether it was an encouraging word, an understanding ear, or simply being there, Terry made people feel cared for and seen.
Terry was, above all, a devoted mother. She poured her soul into raising her sons with strength, compassion, and fierce, unwavering love, and she was endlessly proud of the men they became. She celebrated their successes, supported them through challenges, and made sure they always knew how deeply they were loved. Her love extended gracefully into her role as a grandmother to her granddaughter, Jovie.
She is survived by her husband, Rodolfo Palacios; her three sons: Brandon Palacios; Jared Palacios and his wife, Megan Palacios, and their daughter, Jovie Palacios; and Connor Palacios. She also leaves behind her brother, Jack Edwards, his wife, Jan Edwards, and their daughter, Brianna, who stood by her with enduring love and support.
Terry was preceded in death by her parents, Jack and Martha Ann Edwards, whom she now joins in peace.
Her presence will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Terry’s legacy lives on in every act of kindness, every bloom of beauty, and every memory shared by those who loved her.
