It's hard to believe it's been 12 years since Terry's passing. I remember him very fondly as a fraternity Pledge Brother and still think of him frequently. He will again be missed at the Booker Golf outing next month, but will be remember by all who attend. Love to the family, J.D. AEKDB.

What heartbreak our neighborhood is suffering with the Pope family. It was such joy to share the return of Derek with the Patriot Guard that Terry's passing is even more heartbreaking. Terry was a wonderful husband, father, Brickie, Brickie supporter, and neighbor. He always thought of others [after his mom's funeral, since the familly was going out of town, he shared flowers with us just to brighten our day. When the horrible August storm came through, he was one of the first people to come open our garage door and make sure we were OK.] Terry and Reggie taught such love to their children as well. Now we need to return the love to all of you. Thank you so much for sharing him with so many.
