Mary Lea, the court reporters in Missouri are so saddened by Terry’s passing. As you know, he led our annual meetings by presenting the invocation for many years. I think I speak for everybody when I say I didn’t know a kinder or gentler person. God bless you and your family in this time of great sorrow.
