Mrs. Teresa Kim Hendrix Kakouras, 59, of Advance died on Thursday, Nov. 29, 2018 at Forsyth Medical Center.

She was born March 30, 1959 in Maryland to Gordon and Judith Higgins Hendrix.  She was preceded in death by her mother in 2007.

Surviving: her son, Drew Kakouras; father, Gordon Hendrix; brother, Craig Hendrix and wife Anita; niece, Alexandra “Allie” Koester and husband Derek; and nephew, Hunter Hendrix.

She was been a straight shooter who had no problem defending her beliefs or her favorite football team, the Patriots. The center of her life was her son Drew.  She never took time off from parenting and protecting him. In 2003 she joined Green Meadows Baptist Church in Davie County. She quickly fell in love with the church and its members. In 2013 she suffered a stroke which kept her from being able to do her job at Bank of America.  She used her time to volunteer at Storehouse for Jesus and “The Good News Club.”  She also found passion in taking courses at Vintage Bible College.

The funeral to celebrate her life will be at 11  a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 8 at Green Meadows Baptist Church with Rev. Josh Greene officiating.  Burial will follow in the church cemetery. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service at the church.
