Terry attended school in Flagler, Colorado, where he formed many lifelong friendships. He enlisted in the Navy before finishing high school but was able to return to Flagler to graduate with his class.

Terry will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His legacy of  laughter, and dedication will live on in the hearts of his family and friends.
