I first met Terry in May of 2000 when we were interviewing for our positions in Jacksonville on the Winn Dixie team. We became good friends at that time. Even after his retirement, we stayed in contact with each other. We would always ride each other during football season since he was a Bama fan and I was a Vols fan. He was a very caring person and I will really miss him.
