Terry was born and raised in Calgary. He moved to Taber in the early eighties where he met and married Sherry Weiss. Terry worked at various jobs but spent most of his working years in the oil patch, where he made many friends and acquaintances. Terry worked hard and played hard. In his later years, he loved to watch curling and wrestling and meet friends for coffee. His greatest joy was his grandchildren and great grandchildren; he never missed an opportunity to tease them or to tell them “I Love You”. Terry is loved and will be missed.
