I worked with Terry for some years at UPS. He was one of the good guys. Always giving tips to us younger drivers. Sorry to hear of your loss. He'll be sorely missed.

Debbie,



Words never seem to offer quite enough solace after such a loss. I can only wish peace for you and your family, and hope you will replace tears and sorrow with memories of smiles and laughter.

My Dad lived his life to serve his Wife and Children. He loved the outdoors, mountains, hiking, Colorado, baseball, chocolate and mostly his Grandchildren.

Thank you for your sacrifices and for the love you gave us unconditionally. May we all learn from your example. You will be greatly missed everyday of my life, Dad. Your Loving Daughter, Debbie
