Terry was an avid pool and shuffleboard player. He enjoyed riding his SeaDoo on the Lake and had a knack for making friends everywhere he went. Terry was a very kind man and never met a stranger. He was a jokester and enjoyed playing jokes on his friends and family and cherished spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren. He was known for doing his “Terry Patrol” around the neighborhood, where he kept a close eye on everything that was going on around Robin Hood Lane.

Terry was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend. We celebrate his life and accomplishments and will treasure the many wonderful memories he has created for his family and friends.
