Angie, I was so very sorry to hear about Terry. My thoughts and prayers go out you and the family. Love to all of you.
Uncle Terry was very loved (my favorite uncle…shhh don’t tell the others 😉). He always greeted me with a smile, a hug, and an “I love yoouuu!” I will miss that so much! I don’t remember the first time I met Uncle Terry, probably because it seemed like he was there and a part of our family for as long as I can remember. I will miss all the fun holidays with him and family gatherings. He was so caring, generous, warm, and a wonderful example of a family man.
Aunt Angie – I am amazed at your strength during this difficult time. Many hugs and prayers to you as you mourn and heal.
