  2. Terry, was a very good person in life. He would do anything he could for his family and friends. I have known Terry ever since we were in school and graduated together from Texas City high school. I wish Terry’s family the best. Always remember that your father is always your Angel looking over you in everything you do.

My granddaughter, Mia, told me he taught her everything she knows about softball. We all enjoyed seeing him at the softball field & watching how good he was when coaching Taylor & all the girls. You are all in our thoughts & prayers.

  9. Terry and I were drafted and went to Army basic training together. He’s the one who talked me into volunteering for Airborne school. We ran around together a little bit after we got out of the Army. Great guy. My condolences to his family.
