Dear Nancy,
While thinking of you, I came across your husband Terry's obituary. Reading further, I also learned of the loss of your son Jason. My heart grieves for you. You are too sweet a person to have been beset with such tragedies in your life.
I hope this finds you well.
Warm regards,

It's taken me a while to sign this guestbook because I really didn't want to have to think about the loss we're all going through right now, or to even think that I could find the right words to do justice to Uncle Ter. (I'd have to fill pages and pages of this guestbook to do that!) So, basically I'd just like to say that I was so blessed to have had Uncle Ter in my life, as was everyone who was lucky enough to know him. He was like another Dad, not just an uncle. I don't know too many people who can say that. So to say he will be missed is a tremendous understatement. And even though we're all grieving for eachother and the loss we each feel in our own way, we can be thankful for the bond of love and strength that this family has, and we can also find comfort knowing we have another angel standing next to Jason to help us from above. We love you Uncle Ter and we'll see you again!

My uncle was a great man, my fondest memory of him was when I was a kid and at the dinner table one thanksgiving he taught us how to make the funnies face. You flip your bottom lip down and stick your tongue out over your top lip. To this day I still make that face and think of him everytime I do it. He will be greatly missed.

Dear Nancy,Terry and Family,
I received this news with a very heavy heart.Although we did not have a chance to see each other much
in later years, Terry was always in my most pleasant memories.He was the finest person and friend I ever met.This world will not be the same without him.He will always be in our hearts and minds and I thank the Lord for letting our paths cross.With our belief in God I pray we all meet again as we follow Terry
home to our Lord's House.I am so sorry for the loss of one so special to each and everyone of you.

Our Terry-A gentle man, strong of character, devoted to his family and friends, a peacekeeper, a builder, a loving husband and father. He made us laugh, brought out the best in others, and made everyone feel at home.
His beautiful spirit is with us always.

Terry and I were promoted and worked together as Lieutenants in the 016th District. He taught me to slow down and take it easy. God will have a very special reserved place for Terry, he deserves the best. Retired Lt. Greg Sweeney
