I was saddened when I found out about Terry's passing today, 26 Nov. My condolences go out to Linda and all the White family with the loss of Terry. I feel so bad for not taking the time to go visit him at home, when I found out from his daugther Kori about Terry's condition last year. Terry and I were co-workers in the Aircraft Engine Shop/ Hill AFB. We became good friends and car pool buddies, sharing family stories, youthful memories and learning alot about each other. I have to say I learned much more from Terry than he from me. He more than earned my respect with his efforts earning and obtaining his BS in logistics management at Weber State. He was always so helpful to me with his photographic memory and supportive ways in our daily tasks. He had a very winning personality and got along well with all he came in contact with. He had and still has my respect as well as other Hill Fielders for his work ethic and I Can Do IT Attitude by doing his fair share and more! He was a true friend who definitely will be missed by all who knew him. RIP TERRY
