Farm Family Recipe - Ice Cream Dessert

Terri grew up on a farm on the west side of Montezuma. When she married Kevin she moved to the east side of Montezuma. She kept the same mailman and the same address of Rural Route 1. Terri enjoyed being a stay-at-home mom while their kids were growing up but when their daughter left for college Terri began working full time as a para educator at Montezuma Community School.

Kevin and Terri are parents to two grown children. Their daughter, Heather, is a key accounts manager for Commerce Bank in Kansas City. She and her husband, Ryan, are parents to an 18-month old daughter, Lana. Kevin and Terri’s son, Drew, works part-time for Monsanto, is a substitute teacher and is also involved in the family farming operation. He and his wife, Brittany, live near Montezuma.

When the kids left home Kevin and Terri started taking road trips on their motorcycle. They enjoy traveling, reading, cooking and eating. A requested family favorite is Ice Cream Dessert.
