We appreciate your understanding and encourage you to check for updates as the situation evolves.
Terry, I have thought of you often over the years. My son has this year become a fire captain in his Texas FD and I thought of you especially at his badge pinning ceremony last week. You were such a lovely sweet boy, Terry, and I’ve felt sorrow for over forty years now about your death. RIP, dear Terry, my old HS buddy!
