Terri D Tillman

Terri Diane Tillman, age 64, of Woodstock, GA, passed away unexpectedly on April 15, 2024. Terri was born in Atlanta, GA, but lived all over the country growing up, including New York, Chicago, Boston and Albany, Georgia.

Terri worked for the CDC as a Business Support Specialist in their Global Travel Office. She was instrumental in coordinating the international response to the Covid outbreak and in 2022 received the Center For Global Health “Unsung Hero” Award for her pivotal role on the CDC Covid International Response Team. Terri loved her job and truly felt she was making a difference in the world.

Terri was a woman of strong faith and taught Sunday school for many years as a member of Hillside Global Methodist Church. She was proud to see so many of the young girls she taught grow up in the church to become bright lights for Jesus out in the world. She was heavily involved in many women’s small group Bible studies as an active member of Hillside.

Terri was friendly and kind and enjoyed spending time with friends and family. She loved to travel and saw much of the world in her role with various travel agencies. She enjoyed listening to live music, reading and was an avid Auburn Tigers fan.

She was preceded in death by her father, Charles Edward Weldon. Terri is survived by her children, Emily and Joey Tillman, who she loved more than anything in the world. Also surviving are her mother, Betty Jean Weldon, her sisters Debbie Wagner and Alison Fogerty, her aunt Barbara Wallace, and her uncles Steve Wallace and James Earl Wallace.
