Rest in peace Michael. Our lives paths crossed many times at pivotal points and I am grateful to have known you. We grew up on the same block 3 houses away from each other, we played games together in the streets, backyards and alleys of our neighborhood, we visited each other's houses and bonded as childhood playmates. I moved away from the hood during Jr. High, but our paths crossed again when we attended St. Anthony H.S. I always knew you had my back cause we had history, family, and neighborhood bond. I deeply regret not seeing you over the past years but have kept you in my thoughts and prayers. I will keep those memories of our growing up close in my heart and remember you always. Thanks to the Creator for allowing our lives' paths to cross.

Condolences to the family.

I offer my deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Mike Terry. Like many others in the guestbook, I knew Michael at St. Anthony's High School, and I am deeply saddened by his loss. He made life fun and I am thankful for that.

Mike,
We went to school together at Saint Anthony's. We played together, had good times and bad times together. You are like a brother to us. I can smile thinking about us dreaming, singing and trying to form a singing group. How about the fun times and the house parties and the go-go's.
You will be deeply missed and always thought about may the holy creator bless and keep you brother.
