To Terry's Family: Years ago, Terry was my Youth Director at church. I was his biggest fan and helper when he ran for school board. Terry was a joy to be around. He was a true friend. I regret not being able to keep in touch through the years. My prayers are with the family, as I know the sorrow you are feeling during this time. May God comfort you all. I was very blessed to have known Terry. Lynn Hamilton Welch

I was privileged to teach Terry in the 8th grade at Rhyne School. (My name then was Joanna McGrath). He was a delightful young man. When I saw him again, years later, he was still just as nice as ever, with a wonderful smile. He was smart and witty, and a joy to know. I send my sincerest condolences to all his family members.
