Just today I found out Terry passed. I'm very sorry. He mowed our lawn for many, many years. He was always so interesting to talk with. I enjoyed the experiences and many facts he would share. Like remembering the air strip up on Hanawalt Rd. by us. Our last conversation was when he told me he would not be cutting the grass in 2019 because of his diagnosis and the need for an operation. I wished him the best and we both agreed, he would be back again in 2020. I'm so heartbroken to learn he passed in September. I didn't know. He was a very sweet and warm person who always had a smile on his face. God rest his soul.

My heart is broken, I literally just found out about his passing. I lost contact with Terry a few years ago. We use to eat at White Lily Church in Ashley, he told me his parents liked eating there. I worked with Terry for years. Rest in peace my friend.

Terry listened attentively to those individuals' decades older than him. He gained wisdom from what he heard. Terry always followed his heart, especially when it came to ski slopes. His time on earth was short compared to many.

Terry was my cousin. I will always treasure all of our family gatherings. He was so loved by the family. During the past several months, Terry and I had the opportunity to reflect back on those memories . We became even closer than we had been. His friends that we have gotten to become friends were are amazing. Everyone should be as lucky as Terry was to have such a wonderful extended family. I love you Terry. Enjoy that cruise we talked about!!e
