Terry,

I offer my deepest condolence for the lost of your father. I enjoyed him asking me "where is my hug" each time I saw him. He truly was a great man and will be missed very much. Eileen Fenner

Terry, Sorry for your family's loss. You were a wonderful daughter to your father. You will have great memories of spending time and golfing with him. I am certain you were a comfort to him all of these years being there for him.
