Terry will be missed. He was a good friend and I will cherish the good times that we had.
I am greatly saddened to hear about his passing.

My sincere thanks and gratitude to all of you who sent cards, emails, called and/or attended the Celebration of Terrance's Life. Your condolences and comforting words and actions have warmed my heart and touched my soul's core. Terrance cared deeply and passionately about his family, friends and clients, so know that he is with you always... joining in when you are sipping a cup of coffee or discussing politics or just having a quiet reflective moment. He is with us always.

I am so sorry to learn that Terry has died. He was a kind and gentle man, and I liked him very much. I was really sad when the Coffee Culture closed.

After years of looking, I finally found his buisness card today while packing to move. I tried to call him. Then I looked for him online. That is when I made my sad discovery.

My heart and prayers are with you.

Terr,
You will be missed, my friend. You're wonderful smile lit up the room! Thank you for your thoughtfulness & wisdom that helped me get through such a tough time. Please be the angel you are and look after my sis from Heaven.
Andy,
Love you beatiful girl! Remember the good times with Terr and be thankful. You have been blessed to have had such a wonderful person in your life.

It's hard to believe such a vibrant man is gone. Di, I'll be thinking about you, you are a strong person. Terrence made the best coffee I've ever had. I'll never forget watching him pull a sample of beans out of the roaster, shake his head, put it back and pull it out again later..."now it's done." It looked the same to me! He was so proud of the quality of his coffee that he wouldn't let me buy more than a quarter pound; if I'd bought more I wouldn't have used it before the flavor...

Terry, I believe we were friends many years ago. I lived in College View on 52nd St. We used to ride bikes together in the neighborhood. My friends told me how great your place was and I am greatful to know what a tremendous life you have lived and how you touched so many by your love and character. God bless you and your family and a memory of 50 plus years ago of you and others; in our neighborhood, will never pass. May you rest in ever lasting peace. Bill Snyder.

He was a good man with a great, caring heart. I was sad to see Coffee Culture close. I loved his white mochas & "cultural awakenings". Terry will be greatly missed.
Sincerly,
