His many kind deeds and generous heart will be missed by many.Terry's Poem -This is a poem for the man that I love, my dear, sweet Terry looking down from above.And even though our time together was not very long, the love we shared was ever so strong.You are now at peace and thank God, no more pain, you always tried to stay so strong, but my darling, you suffered so long.This man that I knew for such a short while, filled my heart with love, and had such a sweet smile.I will miss him until the end of life, and I am so glad he made me his wife.I don't understand why things happen the way that they do, and I know, Terry, neither did you.But I know this very day you are at Heaven's Gate, for it's there you told me you would wait.And one day there I will see you again, Terry, my husband, my best friend.I love you.
