So happy you all made it to the last Bennett Springs reunion. Enjoyed hearing about the dogs, birds and just catching up. We are left with many happy memories.
Farewell old friend. We will miss you. You loved the dogs and they will miss you the most.
Marsha, I am so, so sorry for your loss. I remember Terry as a very nice, caring person with kind words for your friends. My heart and prayers are with you and yours.
Terry was my very first friend. He lived next door from the time we were babies until he moved about the time we were five years old. He was one of my very favorite people. He will be missed. Sending hugs and prayers to you Marsha, and to Lisa and Terry’s children.
Vicki & I worked with Terry for many years at NCR. He was a great friend to everyone that knew him. I enjoyed hunting with Terry a few times but was ready to get back to the truck way before he was. Rest in Peace my friend. Tom Byrne
I was heartbroken to hear of Terry’s passing. Having been fortunate enough to work both alongside and for Terry, he was by far my favorite manager ever. I tell every manager I’ve had since that the performance bar was set very high if they wanted to displace Terry as #1 manager. He took the time to teach, not just manage. I will always cherish my memories with him. My prayers are with his family.
Dear Lisa, Michelle and Tony, I am so sorry to learn about Terry’s passing. He was the kindest, caring person and I will never forget spending a week at his home years ago in Whitewater. He and your mom made us feel so at home, it was a wonderful visit. The love for his family and his beautiful dogs was heartwarming. Michael and I send our sincere condolences to all of you. Sending many hugs and prayers.
