To the entire family, we would like to express our sincere condolences for your loss of a wonderful man.
We will surely miss him....Bill has never stopped talking about getting another fishing trip together and has even scouted our places to go. Terry was definitely the master fisherman.
He held a very special place in our lives and in our hearts. We will forever hold the memories close.
With much love and prayers for peace and healing to you.
