My heart is broken from this loss. Terry and I used to pick on each other every time we were together. He told Judy that I was his girlfriend and Judy said "That is fine" I was in shock when my brother, Ray, called and informed me of the passing of such a great and wonderful guy who was loved much by his wife, Judy, and his two precious daughters, Tara and Teresa; plus all of his grand and great grandchildren. Terry, I will miss you as I already do but when you passed, you were at the beginning of going into the Eastern Gate.
Judy, I love you and the girls so much and my prayers are with you all. I DO know what you are going thru and if you need to talk, just give me a call.
With love and prayers,
Marie D Whittington
