Sandy, Your nephew, Stephen and Nieces, Julie, Christine, Elaina, and I were saddened to hear about Terry's passing. Terry had a great sense of humor. I remember one occasion after eating a huge meal prepared by me, Terry complimented me on the butter. We'll all miss him.

Sandy: Terry was a fine man and a good friend. I especially remember sharing ideas and teaching each other what we knew about excavating. His ideas and patents were brilliant. He was so persistant in his endeavors.

This is truly a shock and Karen and my prayers are for you and God is with you and will see you through.

Sandy and family, my sincere sympathy and prayers are with you at this difficult time. I was saddened to hear of Terry's untimely passing and will remember his dedicated service to the class of '60. Terry always sat in front of me in high school classes that were arranged aphabetically, all the better for me to pester him! God bless.
