I am so sorry for your loss. I believe Mr Jacobs was my English and Social Studies teacher as well as my baseball coach my junior and senior year at Saints Peter and Paul Seminary in 1965 and 1966 while he was teaching thete. He was an excellent teacher and coach and was well loved by all of us he taught. He was an inspiration to me. So much so that when I left the PIME order I became an English teacher and a coach. I never had a chance to thank him for his guidance and all he did for me. I am sure he is missed by all who knew him and loved him.

Terry always called us "kid" - it didn't really matter how old we were. He was there to lend a helping hand, a kind word, a gentle guidance. He had a great strength in his quiet way. I never once heard him speak a harsh word of anyone. He was a master of organization and kept impeccable books. The Southeast Breakfast Group will sorely miss his presence. He was a faithful servant and a wonderful role model : ) We love you Terry - may your soul rest with the Good Lord now and forever...until we meet again....

Terry was always a smiling face in my life. I will miss seeing him on Friday nights. My life was better for having known him.

Terry and I were co-workers in the Office of Housing and Community Partnerships (OHCP). He was a good person and I enjoyed working with him and was glad to be a part of his life while working in OHCP. He will be missed.

I will always remember Terry as being so kind to me especially when I was so sick. He was much too young to leave us and his presence will be missed. Please accept my deepest sympathy.
