I played next to Terry for 10 plus years on the volleyball court.  When the team would get in a funk and get frustrated and mad at each other, Terry was ALWAYS the one to do something crazy or say something to get us all laughing.  He was so much fun to know and have on the team.  We spent many a nights on the sand court and Stews Crew Deck and drank beer and told stories.  His were some of the BEST.  I really did not get a chance to get to know you very well Shannon but I am so impressed with how you stood by and took care of our friend.  You are an amazing woman and god really blessed Terry and his family when he lead him to you. 

When I think back of him before this affliction, I'll remember his love of my sister and the strong love and partnership they shared. I'll think of his love of the outdoors here in Colorado. The hikes, the bike riding, the golfing, and his volleyball team. My and Ashley's daughter, Claire always thought Terry was hilarious and they always went through this little act together when Claire was little and called each other Monkeys. Colorado won't be the same without him.

Shannon, if/when you need ANYTHING, call your baby brother. To Terry's parents, sons, sisters, and extended family and friends, The love between these two was extremely strong and caring. They made each other extremely happy and they both loved living in Colorado. I'll think of my friend Terry before every OU football and will imagine he's berating the umps/refs/OU coaches in OU victory and defeat.

If there is an afterlife, I'd like to think of him back as the Terry of old, playing volleyball with his visor on, opening a beer with his special flip-flops, and then settling in on his spot on the sectional to watch OU hang a half a hunnerd.

This is the gang from Lowman St - Downey, CA - Terry is in front with the patch on his eye......great times!
