My deepest sympathy goes out to Terry’s family. I knew Terry from our days at Moore Business Forms. Terry was always a professional who worked as hard for his customers as he did for the company. Nothing was to big a challenge for Terry. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

My deepest expression of sorrow to Terry's family. I worked with Terry at Moore BF when we were both in the Northbrook Office. Terry and I worked together on the Rotary International account. Although I have not seen Terry for many years, I remember his expert knowledge of the printing industry and wonderful dry sense of humor. Terry said it like it was for which I had great respect. He will truly be missed. God bless you all in your sorrow.

As I return today from a Gulf Shores golf trip I was telling my Louisville friends about all the wonderful times Terry, Hal, John and I had at Xmas Mountain playing golf. The man I meet as a work companion at Moore became a friend who I shared many laughs and wonderful times together. His lose will be a lose to everyone who knew him. Our prayers are with his family.
