He retired four years ago due to health reasons. He was an active member of AIrline Baptist Church. He loved spending time with his family most, and also enjoyed camping, canoeing, snow-skiing and golf. Terry had a heart so big he could break out in tears over a commercial. Anyone that knew him well, knew his off-limit topics of discussion that included politics, religion and football.

The family would like to thank Dr. Norwood for his compassion and efforts to save Terry. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the Children's Building Fund at Airline Baptist Church.
