To Terry's family. I was shocked and sadden to read of Terry's death. Terry was my second cousin and hadn't seen him in many years, but I remember him as a kid. We were just a year apart in age and he was always such a good kid. I viewed the photos and I could see, he was a family man that loved his family. I know he will be missed. I am so very sorry for your loss.
