I was heartbroken to learn of Terry’s passing. We were friends at Franklin College. When I think of him and his larger than life personality it still brings a smile to my face. He was a great guy. He will be missed.
I know he loved his family very much and I hope your memories of happier days will help you through the difficult times ahead. I am so very sorry for your loss.

Judy, Kelly, Allie and Conner, We want you to know how sorry we are for the loss of your wonderful Husband and Father. Your family is very important to our family. You have helped us keep our memories alive and we want to help you do the same. You may find sometime in the future that you may worry about moving on with your lives. Hopefully it will help you to know that moving on does not mean leaving him behind. We have found that our relationship continues with Ian and that as we move forward, we bring him with us. Take things slow, grief is a very personal journey. Take care of yourselves and each other. Always know that we are here. We love you all. Malcolm and Andrea

Words can’t possibly express the deep sympathy I have for your loss! Terry was always there behind the girls on the softball diamond. Not just for his own girls but every girl on the team. Whether they won or lost, Terry always had a positive influence on the girls, as well as everyone at the game. I personally have missed him recently since Ali left for College, as has Caroline. Terry has left an impression on many people that can’t be taken away. Our prayers are with Judy and the children. May God see them through this difficult time. Jeff Fairfax

From one of the Andrean gang, my sincere condolences to the family. Terry was a great friend in our day. I occasionally regale my son with a “Wheels” story of old which always had a happy ending. I hope the family can be strengthened during this difficult time and remember to hold on to his memory. At some point, the sun will shine again.

Judy,
I’m sorry to learn of your husband’s passing and even more so that I cannot be there in person. There are a few times in life when there are no good words, this is certainly one of them. My heart aches and while I do not know what you are going through, I can lift you and your children up to the One that does. He is so much more qualified to take you all into His arms and provide the love, comfort, assurance and peace that will give you the hope and strength to start each new day you are given.
I would love to do anything I can for you and if you never ask, I will be praying for you and the kids, especially today but even more so as the next few days come to pass. You are loved by so many and I pray you will come to realize that… now, more than ever.
They say the grief we feel is the realization of the love and happiness our loved one gave to us in this life. We can focus on the loss of that love, or we can embrace the love we were given and be grateful that we ever knew love at all. You received a great blessing in that gift. I pray that God will remove your pain, grief and sorrow and that you and your children will come to know the depth of His love for you as you start this new chapter in your lives.
Love you Judy,
Mark
