Teri Jean Bridges Hanks, born February 28th, 1954 in Kentwood, LA, and a longtime resident of Greensburg, LA, peacefully departed this life at her home on Tuesday, June 17th, 2025 surrounded by her loving family. Teri was a devoted wife, a loving mother, and a doting nana. She attended Valley Forge High School, graduating in 1972. After high school, she enrolled in beauty college and obtained her cosmetology license. She opened her own business, Teri's Hilltop Beauty Shop, where she cut hair for the next 51 years. Her clients became her extended family.  She enjoyed countless hours styling their hair and listening to their life stories while offering sound advice, Scriptures, and heartfelt prayers.  Her faith was a defining point of her character. In 1979 she married the love of her life, Phillip Daryl Hanks, and was blessed with 41 years of marriage before Daryl's passing in 2020. She was known as Nana to her three grandchildren whom she loved and adored. She enjoyed attending all of their events and activities, oftentimes serving as chauffeur, stylist, and official cookie baker. Memories of her will remain in their hearts forever.
