I used to work with Terry at RCA, he was a wonderful family always talking about how proud he was of his daughter Heather. He also bragged about his beautifu wife Renee. He was a pleasure to work with, he was a gentleman.

I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of Terry, he was a wonderful co-worker at RCA and a real gentleman. He also seemed like a great family man who worshiped his family. Terry was a great loss, sending prayers for his family and friends. Joyce Wilson
