I'm deeply touched by your family's loss of Terry. I worked at C.C.C. in The Fairway for several years and got to know Terry over the years. When referencing his death and him to another former co-worker, I said; "you remember! The attorney who really cared about people and was well-grounded and had a great sense of humor!"
Terry had all of that and I'm sorried to hear of his passing of this life so early. May you all comfort in knowing that he touched many of us!

I remember Uncle Terry as my baby-sitter when I was younger, and I enjoyed the summer I spent as a runner for his firm. I had no problems calling him "Uncle Terry" in front of his staff and colleagues. And after a while they called him Uncle Terry, too. I'll always remember him as a gentle man.

Terry and I were fraternity brothers and adult friends. I visited him in the nursing facility and was saddened to hear of his passing. We enjoyed many good times together as college friends and golfing buddies. He was a true friend through the years. I will miss him.

Terry and I grew up together. He was a sweet brother and our Mother's baby boy. She was very involved with everything he did. She was so proud of him. He was so smart in school and all the teachers loved him. He loved to play baseball with the little league and we all would go to see him play. He and I were members of Oakhurst Methodist Church and were baptised together. He loved Jesus and knew his Bible. I shall miss him so much and will look forward to seeing him in heaven. He was a great father and his children were the light of his life.
We love you Chris and Stacey.
