Uncle Terry,
I loved your Christmas time visits - you would arrive in a snazzy hat and overcoat, ready with a smile and a joke. So many memories of sitting around our kitchen table listening to your tales of life in California - you were such a gifted story teller. In later years whenever I would see you you couldn't wait to hear what was going on with my "kiddies". Say hi all the Woodsie family for us - wondering if they play cards and have hot dog stands in heaven?
Love, Ann (Cusick) Maloney and family

When Uncle Terry visited from California, we knew exactly how he and our dad would greet each other. Uncle Terry would say, "Hey, Luigi!" and dad would respond in kind. "Good to see you, too, Luige!" Uncle Terry may have traveled light on the winter clothes, but he always arrived heavy on the humor! What a delight he was...we'll miss him!

My dad really enjoyed New Year's Day on S. Philip Street when he would see his beloved sister and her family. He loved to share golf stories with Terry, as this was an area that both of them lived for. You will be dearly missed, Ter, and may you rest in peace.

Sorry to hear my buddy Terry has passed. We were born on the same day at the same hospital. I always called him my twin brother. We went through school at Mt. Carmel and South Catholic and palled around together. Terry was my best man at our wedding. Later years we always kept in close touch, even when he was out in California and we always called each other "Sam".
Rest in peace,Sam
