My favorite memories with Terry included camping and enjoying his cooking. I remember him taking all the time needed to peel & slice the potatoes, to deep fry them for “home fries”. All of us kids had so many awesome camping trips together. My prayers are with the family as they get through this difficult time. ❤ To all.
