Not sure what to say?

I first met Terry about 2 years ago after I was adopted by the Giger clan. I enjoyed visiting with him as he always had some stories to share. I'll miss him and his life stories. He did get the better deal on the cap trade.

Rest in peace, Terry. I will always remember your sense of humor. Susan Gage Wilson-Tucker, sister-in-law

Terry was one of my favorite cousins. When we were boys, we met up several times a year at family reunions. My family came up from Oklahoma to visit my Dad’s Mother, Clara Jacobson, in Sedgwick, KS. Terry and other cousins had lots of fun playing kick-the-can or front yard football , etc. Recently, we reconnected a bit online. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I thank our Lord Jesus for a great reunion someday!

My recently deceased husband, Dean Robinson, grew up with Terry in Florence, KS. I heard many stories about their childhood exploits. Deepest sympathy to his family.
