    To Terry's Family,

    I remember Terry as the guy who played the tuba in the high school band. He was a great golfer and an all around good guy. He was fun to talk and joke with during study halls. May he rest in peace.

  2. Rebecca Miller. (Borgwardt)

    You were such a good friend all through elementary and high school. Even though you copied me in bookkeeping, you were successful in accounting. A better friend one couldn't have asked for.

  3. Diane Lambert

    Sincere sympathy to the family of Terry, I remember him from HS, and he was a kind man.

  4. David McNaughton

    Terry has been a good friend for many years as we worked together at UW-Stout, supported BlueDevil athletics and roamed the local golf courses. A kind gentleman; a good man to be with. I will remember, and wish you peace. Dave

    Terry was a friend to many people. We hunted together and he was a mentor in getting me started wood carving. He loved the outdoors and always had a new story to tell about his experiences. Be it cutting wood or fishing in Canada, he always loved nature. We will all miss you Terry.

  6. Bill Siedlecki

    First met Terry in 1968 in Towers Hall at UW-Eau Claire and worked with him during my years at UW-Stout. Terry was truly a good-hearted man who always had time to talk and to answer your questions. I am so glad I had a chance to visit with Terry at The Neighbors and to spend some time remembers our early days working together. I hope Terry's Dad and Sister can take comfort in knowing that so many folks liked and respected Terry.
