Have loved Terry's paintings for many years. I have 10 or so of the prints in my home. Now other family members have started collecting them also. He had such a talent for painting and see things that the normal eye would not see. Loved his work.

I had the pleasure of meeting Terry once in San Diego. I have collected his prints for years and they have provided me and my family with many hours of immense beauty and solitude. "Winter Windbreak" helped me recover from cancer. My best to his family and thank you for the museum.

I had the priveledge of visiting the museum & it was such an emotional & spiritual event. I cried the whole time... the feeling the paintings gave me was Unbelievable! Especially An American Portrait series... Soo Beautiful! What an honor to have experienced that. Prayers to Terry's family

I bought the America the Beautiful series as they came out. I was told by the people at the store where I bought the prints that I should take the prints to the Watertown Art Show and have Terry Redlin "double sign" them.

I took the prints to the Watertown Art Show as they came out and Terry did "double sign" them.

The last year I took the From Sea to Shining Sea print for him to sign. Of course he did sign it. He told me that another lady had come in earlier that day with all 8 America the Beautiful prints for him to sign. He did sign them. He told me that he had forgotten that I had been coming through the years with my prints, but he did assure me that there are only two sets that are double signed.

I am blessed to have met Terry Redlin.

Hello-

I had the unique opportunity to be with Chuck and his family. Terry's son was just like them. Decent, kind, generous, and bright. I was so sad when I learned that Terry had gone upstairs to be with the ones that have gone already and wait for all of us. Now his lovely wife and children can think back to all the good memories and laugh at the bad ones.... That's what we all have to do.... Right????

Terry's art was a passion for him and I look at his art in my home everyday. Most occupations you don't have something beautiful to look at. He deserved all the acclaim and good fortune....

To the Redlin family. You are loved and respected. Enjoy each other....

Sincerely,

Jay S. Simonsen

While looking through the rain from the window where I work I see the flag flying at half mass at the Redlin Center. I did not know Terry Redlin, but I feel a great deal of sadness knowing that a gentleman who brought so much talent and happiness to others is gone. He continues to live on through his beautiful works of art! He is gone, but will never be forgotten!

We were just at the art Center, our first visit and it was so wonderful. We have been lovers of Terry's art and own some of his paintings. We purchased his last picture on our visit. They all hang in our living room and we couldn't enjoy anything more. God's blessings and comfort to your family.

In 1997, I came with Dad -John Langenfeld - to the opening of the Redlin Art Center. Helene and Terry invited us to their home at the Lake for a gathering. What a treat! I have a photo with Terry in the beautiful dining area.

I am so sorry for you loss. Thinking of you all.
