Terryne M. Daley

Terri M. Daley, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend to many, passed away peacefully on March 17, 2026. Her warmth, generosity, and unwavering love shaped the lives of everyone fortunate enough to know her.

For 25 years, Terri dedicated herself to caring for children through her work in daycare. She had a gift for making every child feel safe, seen, and cherished, and her influence extended far beyond her own family. The countless young lives she touched stand as a testament to her patience, compassion, and joyful spirit. Terri is survived by her devoted husband, Mike Daley, who was her partner in all things. She is also survived by her siblings, Bud Schulte and his wife Dawn, and BernaDene Reimer and her husband Lynn, who shared a lifetime of memories, laughter, and family traditions with her.

Her legacy lives on through her children: Shawn Daley and his wife Nicole, Scot Daley and his girlfriend Keiryn, and Kari Boettcher and her husband Jeff. She was endlessly proud of them and the families they built. Her grandchildren—Maxwell Daley, Jorja Boettcher, Smith Boettcher, and Madison Daley—were the light of her life, each one holding a special place in her heart.

Terri was preceded in death by her parents, Butch and Isabelle Schulte, and her grandchild Axel Boettcher, whom she now joins in eternal rest.   A Celebration of Life will be held on May 9, 2026, 2pm-4pm, at 5630 Keats Avenue, Lake Elmo, MN, where all who knew and loved Terri are welcome to gather, remember, and honor her remarkable life.

Her absence leaves a profound void, but her memory—rooted in love, kindness, and the countless lives she touched—will continue to guide and comfort those she leaves behind
