Our Dear Friend Terry passed away, on Saturday July 27th, 2002, from Creutzfeldt-Jakob. Terry would of been turning 57 on July 30th. Terry's humour, great personality and even more his friendship will be missed by us all. This webpage is dedicated to Terry, remembering Our Friend always.
Terry, was born in Wichita Kansas, where he hated the cold, harsh winters. Terry moved to Tucson, Arizona with his wife Ina. Here Terry worked for the U.S. Postal Station. Serving 30 years of service, Terry retired in the summer of 2000 as a Training Technican. Terry is survived by his wife Ina, they married for almost 40 years.
As most of us know, Terry's favourite past-time was attending the dog and horse races. Before Terry's retirment, he would meet Ina early on a Friday afternoon, to catch a matineee movie, then a nice quiet dinner together. Together they loved scooting off to Laughlin for their get aways, to play their favourite card games, like Let it Ride. Their enjoyment in their lives,
were Mikey and Trixie, till their labs passed away shortly before Terry became ill..
For those of us that knew Terry, we know he had a great passion for the internet. Terry loved meeting new people, making new friends whenever possible. From around the world Terry would find someone he would get to know and call them a friend.
Many of us know Terry from the days of the old chat program Powwow. It was here, we gave Terry his nick-name, the "Old Goat". He proudly displayed a picture of a bearded goat as his avatar. Although to many of his friends, he was also known as Trifecta. Giving himself this nick-name for his love of the sport the dog and horse races.
We all had alot of good times together, laughing, and joking around. We all did our fair share of teasing too. We would spend hours online chatting, and sometimes even seeing sunlight break.
Although, those nights became a challenge for us all, when we had to get up for work. For Terry it got to the point he needed 3 alarms clocks to wake him so he wouldn't sleep in. I'm sure Ina, had a fit, some of those mornings when Terry walked in late to work. We're sorry Ina for keeping Terry up so late.... But if we could have a second chance, we'd do it all over again. :-)))
As many of you already know, Terry created his own webpage some time ago, calling it "Trifecta's". Please feel free to look over what he has. He shares with us all, what mattered to him the most.
You can even sign his guestbook there.
Thank You for coming to Pay Tribute to Terry. His friendship meant so much to each and every one of us. We will miss him dearly.
