Terry was more than a close friend, we considered him family. During the difficult times, you could always count on him to listen, and respond with his humor to turn the tears into laughter. I will never forget how much help he was to me everytime I needed something fixed, even at odd hours in the horrible weather. Not many people will drop everything for their friends... but Terry did. We are grateful he was part of our lives. He will be remembered always and missed often. Terry will live on in our hearts and fond memories with a giant smile. Candie.... our door is always open, as well as our extra bedrooms. We are here if you and Scott need ANYTHING. We love you.

Terry was not only a friend of mine but also a father figure for the past 4 or so years now. He was the man with the knowledge to answer any question you placed before him.. Without a judgement in hand he would be at your side through thick and thin. He would carry you beneath his wing as he will continue to do in this new element of his.. The meaning to his life will carry on into his death and he will remain a large and important part of everyone's lives.. Terry, you have enriched my life and for that I am grateful.. I will miss you dearly.. But I will also take comfort in knowing that you will continue to be that angel everyone has grown accustomed to count on when things get rough.. The one that always could make anyone and everyone smile.. Candie, you know I am here and I love you.. Time will heal and we will be there for you every step of the way.. Thank you both for being a part of my life..

Dear Hanahan Family,

It is so hard too put into words for the loss of Terry. You are our extended family that we grew with over the years. Terry and our father (Pops) were so close the only thing keeping them from being related was blood. I know dad thought the world of all you kids, but Terry was his buddy. God knows that Terry missed our father just like we all do. Terry always had time too lend a hand for his extended family whenever we needed it. He always treated me like a brother, like he needed another brother around. We have all been thru alot the past few years. We were all lucky to know such a fine man like Terry. I know he will always bring a smile to my face whenever he is thought of.

All Our Love & Prayers,



Bob, Lori,& Heather Barnes

Terry was a great guy that everyone loved. I only knew him a short time, but he was always there for me. If you needed somebody to talk to he was there, and I would always walk away with a smile on my face. I will never forget him. Candy, If you need anything you know we will all be there for you, just like Terry and You were there for us.
