  3. Very sorry to hear about Terry’s passing. He was a very nice, kind man and always had a ready, sincere smile whenever we’d see him out and about. We send our thoughts and prayers you, Diane, and all of his family. I remember the old gymnastics days at the CYO like it was yesterday. Actually it was over 30 years ago.

  7. Diane, Cynda and Becky…We are both so sorry to hear about Terry..I just saw you last week …Can’t get my mind around it.
    All the years we traveled with you and the girls to meets and the times you came to visit…It’s like losing family. He always made each girl feel like they could accomplish anything…He was a most caring and loving man..always a smile, rare to anger. We will miss him. He helped turn a lot of little girls into graceful young women with the confidence to do whatever they wanted, &with your help he had some highly decorated gymnasts. J’aime just loved him..Please know we are thinking of you. If we can help in anyway don’t hesitate to ask.

  9. To Terry’s Family,

    I was so sorry to hear about Terry. He stopped by the Mayor’s Office almost everyday to say hello, ask how my day was going or just sat down to share a story or two with me. Every spring he brought me in tulips or daffodils from his garden which made my day and brightened the office. I will miss his warm, gentle spirit. He will be missed by all of us at City Hall.

    With Prayers and Sympathy,
    Cathy Trowbridge

With much love and admiration, Terry keep on smiling and make them reach for the top while you are there. Thank you for the great memories and all the great life lessons that you gave to me. I will miss you until we meet again. Love ya and miss ya….. GAMBA – BKA Crash…. Julie F.
