Dads Dad was the most loving father-in-law and grandfather. We miss him; however, we know he is with Our Lord and Savior, no more sadness only happy and loving memories.

We enjoyed our time visiting with Terry every time we went to visit our son and his family. A real gentleman and we greatly miss our conversations and comparing authors. You are at rest my friend in the company of our Lord.
