Donna and I are greatly saddened by the news of Terry’s passing. For more than 40 years, Terry was a great friend who could always make me laugh. We shared a love of sports activities, tennis, table tennis, darts and more. We loved talking hockey and I, a life-long Leaf fan, put up with him being a Canadien fan. Music was a lifelong passion for both of us. I will forever hear him singing his beloved Elvis songs when we were at our Karaoke haunts. We will fondly remember the backyard evenings he and Marie hosted; fires, karaoke, conversation – such good times. So long “TL”. I will miss you. Your friend “Mike T”.
Our heartfelt condolences to you Marie and all the family.
