Mr. Terry was my Commercial Art teacher 1982-1984 at Willoughby South. He was an amazing person, he cared about his students and you knew it. I didn't stay in touch with him as I would have liked to.... To my regret. 28 years after graduation and he still stays with me. You are missed Mr. Terry!

I'm sorry I was unable to attend Don's funeral service. Don and I were neighbors when we lived on Maryland Avenue. He was a great friend. Sincere sympathy to his family.

Don was my Commercial Art teacher 82-84. Was my favorite teacher. Always stopped by to see him when I was home on leave from the Army. Awesome guy. Think my favorite line of his was in school we'd ask "Mr Terry what does the clock say" (to find out what time it was) and he'd say "It doesn't say anything you have to read it." Loved the guy. He will be missed.
