I went to elementary school with Terry at St. Hedwig. He was always the talented jokester and a dear friend. May he rest in peace.

Ellen,
So sorry to hear of Terry"s passing. The man was the most talented and kind person I ever had the pleasure to know. I've known him since high school. Over the years he graced our stage(Friar Tuck's) with his humor and amazing versatility. I loved his off-the-wall humor in everything he did. He will be missed I know.
