My condolences to Terry’s family. He was a great guy. I roomed and skied with him on several Elmhurst Ski Club western trips.

Spent a lot of great times on the ski slopes with Terry. Our Elmhurst Ski Club numbers are dwindling. We had some really good times together.

Terry was my neighbor when I lived in Yorkfield. Always loved talking to him when walking his beautiful Collies. Rest in peace .

When I was a kid my sister and I would run into him on his morning walks with his dogs while we were walking to the bus stop for school. Every morning he’d always stop to let us pet them and we’d chat for a bit. Such a lovely neighbor. He’d always stop by in the summer with veggies from his garden. A wonderful man! Will certainly miss his friendly smile and hellos around the neighborhood.

I visited Terry’s wake on Tuesday Nov 21 and I was really glad to meet some of his family members and friends. My condolences to all Terry’s family and friends. I was a running partner of Terry during his marathon training years. His work and training ethic was a great inspiration for me !

Terry was a loving and giving “Marathon” runner who supported causes that helped children in both schools and hospitals. I applaud his heart-loving efforts and will miss him.
