Terry Dugan has been around my whole life and a friend of my family´s a whole lot longer. His mainstay presence at family parties was a joyous one that always began with his raucous intro. I´ll cherish the long conversations we shared about a variety of topics and world issues that we were solving. Terry Dugan will be missed dearly, but I know he is walking into another raucous intro from the friends who have left us already. RIP Terry Dugan.

It is with deep sorrow that I extend my most sincere condolences to the entire family. Terry was a man of rare greatness-a true hero in every sense. As a great-uncle, he was loving, attentive, generous, and, above all, profoundly kind.

I will always hold close the long, thoughtful conversations we shared in the quiet ambiance of Quebec City´s bars-discussions that revealed the depth of his spirit and wisdom. I will never forget the unforgettable journeys we took together to Chicago, nor the heartfelt words he offered me on the day of my wedding to Rachel. Those words, like every moment spent with him, remain engraved in my heart.

Terry´s memory will live on through the countless lives he touched-with dignity, compassion, and unwavering love.
With love and remembrance from Quebec,
Nicolas

Dear Dugan family

My heart is heavy as I write this, and I wish there were words that could truly ease the pain of your loss. Please know that you are in my thoughts during this difficult time.

John and I met Terry 58 years ago at Bogan High School. He spent so much time at our house, we considered him another member of the O´Donnell clan. My dad (aka as Yabs ) loved when Terry visited. They would carry on in the kitchen laughing and joking for hours on end. Occasionally, they indulged in an adult beverage or two....

Parties in the Daly basement will never be the same because we will be missing our dear friend Terry.
I feel blessed to have seen him two weeks ago at the Kelly Ritchies wedding.

You will be missed my friend,
Love Mimi
