We are moving and you know when you move you start looking at the things around your home and wonder what to keep and what to not keep. In my office I have a lovely print of partridges on a fence done by Terry. I purchased it from him at an art show in White Rock, BC sometime ago - perhaps 2016 or 2017. I have loved this print since the moment I saw it and look at it every day as it hangs on the wall between my desk and my printer - a path well trodden. Looking at my art work there was no question of whether I would take or leave this print. In fact I thought I might acquire another print because if one is good two is twice as good. So here I am looking up Terry Isaac on the internet and what to I find but the sad news that he died unexpectedly last year.
I am so sorry for your loss - and the loss to the art world. If it is any comfort he left a mark as he passed this way and that is more than can be said for many.

My heart is heavy as I just learned today you are no longer with us. You left this world far too soon and certainly had so much more to share and give. Thank you for showing up so completely authentic and sharing your brilliance and gifts while being a kind and gentle man. My condolences to your wife, children, family, friends, fans and subject matter that might have had their portraits painted by you. You are and will continued to be loved and missed.
Terry and I went to school together from middle through high school. I am sorry we only saw each other a few times after that.

Yesterday afternoon, Lisa and I learned of Terry's passing. I first met Terry around twenty years ago at a print conference in Florida. I was already familiar with his wonderful work and was delighted to put a face with the name. We continued to see each other at various shows around the country, which gave us a chance to catch up.
Terry always had something complementary to say about another artist's work, he always had a smile on his face and his work was always the absolute best!
I have lost a friend, the art world has lost a tremendous artist and the world has lost the type of person we all should emulate.
May God bless his family and receive his soul.

Thank you Terry!

I am totally shocked that Terry has passed! I had the good fortune to have some of my artwork in the same exhibition with him in the 1980's. He was always an inspiration to me and my art and an excellent acrylic painter. I'm totally bummed! Jason

I was so sorry to learn that Terry passed away. I was fortunate that he and Ron were next-door neighbor boys to me. I am glad to have had a visit with him in Salem a few years ago and to learn more about him as a person and as a master artist. My heart goes out to Pat, Jerry, Ron, Terry's wife and children, and extended family. Some special memories include hearing Terry play the drums next door, seeing his fascination with robots, and hanging out with him and the other neighborhood kids. Terry was a warm individual with a spark for life and a great passion for his art. My deepest condolences.

I was shocked and saddened to read about Terry's passing. My heart goes out to his family and friends. He was such a sparky, fun person; a light in the dark. We are fortunate to have his art and children to remember him by; he leaves a lasting legacy.

On behalf of the Edgar kids (Terry, Cheryl, Jay), I send my deepest and most sincere condolences. There are truly no words that can ease the void Terry has left behind. May the tears now being shed be replaced by smiles of a life well - lived and loved. You are all in my prayers.
