We cut Terry's hair for years, we learned a lot about his life. We really enjoyed the stories and joy Terry brought to us. We sure will miss seeing him walk everyday and stop in for a quick chat. We hope there is a Goodwill and used video store up there for you to enjoy and browse. Rest easy our friend.

I'm not one to small talk. I avoid talking to people I don't know in general, but whenever I went shopping at Pick n Save, Terry's genuine friendliness got me talking. He was one of the reasons I continued shopping there. I will miss his ever present kindness and positivity.

I had the pleasure of working with Terry for 28 years. He acted with a big heart and genuine kindness towards others. One of his goals was to be a minister. Now he is with God in heaven and reunited with his Mom which he talked about often and truly missed. I will miss his smile and our talks.My condolences to his family. Diane White
