We were very saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Terry. He was a long-time customer of ours. He was very friendly fellow who always had a smile and a story for everyone who worked here. He was as much a staple of Barb and Ernie's as the pork schnitzel which he liked too. He will be missed. From Thomas, Char, Chris and all the staff at Barb and Ernie's Restaurant.
