TERRY JUDGED NO ONE. HE ACCEPTED ALL WITH AN OPEN HEART AND OPEN MIND. HE IS HOW WE SHOULD ALL STRIVE TO BE.

I MET TERRY FROM FB, ALTHO WE NEVER COULD FIGURE OUT HOW DUE TO NOT HAVING ANY MUTUAL FRIENDS AT THE TIME. IT STARTED BECAUSE HE PRACTICED KUNDALINI AND OFFERED TO TEACH ME DUE TO MY EXPERIENCE WITH MY OWN KUNDALINI AWAKENING I HAD SHARED WITH HIM. FROM THE FIRST DAY WE MET IN PERSON TO THE LAST DAY WE HUNG OUT, HE IMPRINTED MY SOUL. WE SPENT ALMOST EVERYDAY TOGETHER AND 4WKS BEFORE HE PASSED, I EVEN MOVED DOWNTOWN TO BE CLOSER TO HIM. HE HAD AN AMAZING RELATIONSHIP WITH MY DAUGHTER AND WAS SUCH A DEEP, RICH SOUL. I LEARNED SO MUCH FROM MY DEAR FRIEND AND WILL FOREVER MISS HIM. I KNOW HE IS WITH ME EVERYDAY STILL AND I CAN'T WAIT TO FIND OUT IF ALL WE SUSPECTED THE AFTERLIFE TO BE, IS CORRECT. I KNOW HE IS ENJOYING HIS DIVINE DESTINATION AND IS GUIDING ME NOW ON MY OWN LIFE JOURNEY. HE IS NOW MY SPIRIT GUIDE. WE HAD A PLAN, IT JUST WASN'T THE WAY WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. THE PLAN IS STILL IN MOTION, BUT HAS SO MUCH MORE PURPOSE NOW THAN I OR HE HAD EVER IMAGINED IT WOULD. LOVE YOU TERRY AND I MISS YOU, MY BEST FRIEND.

Words cannot express how I feel right now. I just found out today that Terry had passed away. The last time I saw him was just a couple of months ago so this is a real shocker. I met him years ago and he was somewhat of a guru to me. RIP Terry

Sad that Terry didn't attend many class reunions to stay in touch. I remember him as a very friendly, good-natured guy who was VERY intelligent and into physical fitness----a kind and gentle soul. RIP Terry.

went to high school with TERRY and made acquaintance with him at evansville,while I lived and worked there some 30 + years, before moving to Huntingburg. I met his mother while working, and talked to her about Terry. I also remember running into Terry once in a while at Huntingburg, while he was living here to take care of her. Good and freindly person. In the imortal words of Comedian Steve Martin, he was one WILD AND CRAZY KINDA GUY!! RIP TERRY
