What a sweet man. Tough on the outside, gooey on the inside. He touched my husband and I.

Terry was such a great neighbor and faithful friend to me for several years. He always made sure everything was fixed perfectly in my apartment and always tried to make my life more comfortable. He was a good guy with a big heart and I will never forget his kindness. When my husband (then boyfriend) and I moved in together, Terry stopped by with a huge set of tools to give to my husband so he could fix my broken things. I will miss him, but I know he is in the arms of his loving Father now and there is no more sickness or strife. My prayers are with you all as you go forward. <3
