Terry's dad was called to Heaven and is now at peace and united with all his family and friends that have gone before him.
Terry's dad was a good man, great husband and father, grandfather and a Man of God.
We will miss this sweet man in our daily lives.
This is Terry's mom and dad's wedding photo. September 17, 1955 |
This was taken just a few years ago at their 60th wedding anniversary.
This year in September it would have been 65 years together.

Terry's siblings and parents. |
He loved his family. Every Christmas Eve we all would wear our Christmas pj's. He loved his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. |
Here he is with our granddaughter Abby. Boy did she love her great grandpa. |
Our littlest granddaughter Charlotte loved her great grandpa. |
