I met Terry in Oslo, when an anthropologist, Dr Daly, a friend, arranged a meeting of his friends and acquaintances in connection with the launching of a new publication. I came to know Terry then, and our contact as good friends continued for many years until his departure to his home city, New York. He was a modest, pleasant and intelligent man, easy to communicate with. When Dr Daly mentioned his death in April, I was deeply shocked. My condolences to all his family members, friends and admirers. Rest in Peace, dear Terry!
