I am so sorry to hear of Terry's passing. I worked at Sheaffer's Grocery in Ickesburg from about the age of 15-25. He and I were both avid Flyers fans and I would wear my Mellanby jersey to work from time to time. He always joked and called me Mrs. Mellanby. The last time I saw him was in Newport. He sat with me and we talked for quite a while before he was called back for his appointment. Always a character and such a genuinely kind man. He will be missed.
