Please accept our condolences for the death of such a good man. Terry was always such a generous man who will certainly be missed on that corner of High and Broadway. He would always treat all his customers with respect and kindness.

Twila, you more than anyone else would know what a kind, generous and high integrity person that Terry was, although anyone who spent more than a minute in his presence had to appreciate him. I first met Terry when I began working at Ohio Bell and Terry serviced or vehicles. I've had the honor and pleasure of knowing him for these passed many years. The thought of him being gone is extremely hard to take. I will miss him. Rest in peace Terry, you were one of the truly good guys.
