Very sad to see Terry gone. He was a very good friend of mine back in junior high and high school. Its been decades since Ive seen Terry, but that doesnt change the fact that he was always good to me and I have many found memories of him.

Sorry to see my ole pal gone so young. His dad worked the neighboring farmer Frank Conklin. Terry use to go to my Great Grandma Alice Clark's for Christmas.
One evening I pulled in the driveway at the farm to find Terry had moved in. He was always good for a laugh or a beer.
We fished the river and cruised the roads looking for picn's.
Terry had a kind loving heart. I doubt he ever really hated anyone.
