Terry and I were co-coaches for Firehawks Lacrosse teams for each of the last five years and my son Quinn and I had the privilege of spending hundreds of hours with Terry and Charlie as we played and learned the game together. Terry was so giving with his time to both Quinn and I, and also to each of the teams we coached (two U9 teams, two U11 teams and one U13 team). Over the years, he also became like an older brother to me and provided wise advice and support to me and my family. He always had a great, positive spirit and a considered opinion about lacrosse and personal or business matters. He sought to make this world a better place. I will miss him dearly and I know that his spirit lives on. I wish Louise, Charlie, Harriet and Max strength through this time and I know you know, as I do, that your husband and dad = AWESOME!

Hi Family. Please accept my condolences. Our creator welcomes all to draw ever closer to him during this time. May he be the source of encouragement that helps you to deal with this death. Psalms 72:12 says" For he will rescue the poor who cry for help. Also the lowly one and whoever has no helper". So be assured that our creator is there for you during your lost, come to him in your earnest prayer.

Terry was like a little brother to me when we were growing up. He grew into a wonderful man. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with his entire family.

Words can not express the sympathy and sorrow I feel for all of you. Terry was like a little brother to me as we were growing up. He always had a big impish smile for everyone and looked as though he was keeping a big secret from us all.
