Our employees are like family and we share in the loss of Terry. He was respected and a hard worker. We will always remember him with that twinkle in his eye and his dusty hat, he will be missed but never forgotten.

In 26 years of comercial construction, it was always a relief when I knew Terry was coming to my job. Best mason foreman ever worked with as a professional.We have been through many situations, and conditions in a tough buisness. Will always speak of the man with the most respect as a great supervisor, damn hard worker, and even as tough as he always was, a soft heart, only great leaders portray. Was a true pleasure crossing paths with Terry Rupp. His spirit and lessons will live on.

Those we love remain with us
For love itself lives on,
And cherished memories never fade
Because a loved one's gone.
Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart,
For as long as there is memory,
They'll live on in the heart.
May God's comfort be with all whom loved Terry, he surely will be missed.

Our love and blessings go out to Terry's family as we share their grief. Terry's devotion to family and his unflinching responsibility to both his job and the farm will surely be noted in the Great Book. We wish we could be there to hug all of you, but for now we hope you find a little comfort knowing that we share your sadness.

With all our love, Chuck and Anita Batz

Words can't even begin to describe the thoughts, feelings and disbelief we are feeling right now but the memories and the love that we all have for Terry will forever live in our hearts.

The Broken Chain
I little knew that morning. God was going to call your name,
In life I loved you dearly, in death I do the same.
It broke my heart to loose you, you did not go alone,
for part of me went with you, the day God called you home.
You left me beautiful memories your love is still my guide,
and though we cannot see you, you're always at my side.
Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same,
but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

With all our love,
Mike,Tammy,Ash,Ty,Isabella & Noah
