Terence Edward "Terry" Hollahan

I worked with Terry at The Jackson Sun and found him to be a gentle and kind man. I asked about his family one night after the press rolled and he got choked up and couldn't speak for a moment. It took him aback that someone at work cared about his life at all. His kindness and gentleness was evident to all of us in The Jackson Sun's newsroom family in those early years of my career.

I had the privilege of getting to know Terry and playing golf with him on many occasions. He was a good golfer and a lot of fun to hang out with. He had a wonderful sense of humor, and could talk to you about anything. He taught me a couple words that have significant meaning to me - easy and peace. "Be easy", he would say when things might get a little heated. And about peace, I didn´t realize that one´s peace could be disrupted in so many ways. Terry helped me to understand these simple...

Terry was a friend from St Michael School and will be greatly missed. Prayers for his family and close friends. May he rest in peace.

May you Rest in Eternal Peace!

I´m sure in retrospect that I knew Terry in our parochial school days from sports but I certainly really spent time with him at CBHS and at after school gatherings (1:40, 2:40 club iykyk) . I have just recently reconnected and am saddened by the news. I was certainly proud of his accomplishments as a businessman father , husband and friend. God bless him and his family. God got a good one .

Prayers to his family, I´ve known Terry since we were in the fifth grade. I´m going to miss his clever dry sense of humor. He was one heck of a basketball player. I don´t think I´ve ever seen him without smile. He will be missed.

I met Terry when we were both in Dr. Frank Swicker´s Chemistry class in our Junior year at CBHS. I recall that Terry sat in front of me. We would we speak when we came into class. Unfortunately, I didn´t have Terry in any other classes, so I didn´t get to know him well. But I liked him. I especially remember that Terry was a fan of guitarist Jeff Beck. He mentioned this as Jeff was playing a concert at the Mid-South Coliseum. I knew who Jeff was but I was such a Led Zeppelin fan...

Terry was a student of mine in the 70's at St. Michael's. It was a joy when after many years I reconnected with him on facebook. I loved hearing about his family life and his wonderful accomplishments as a young man May he rest in peace and may God bless his family.

Terry was a good man. May he Rest in Peace. God bless his family at this time of sorrow.
