Terry was a true Southern Gentleman! He loved his southern cooking especially his homemade biscuits, Yum! He was an all around American; Home Coming King of his high school, Football Captain, lead guitarist in his high school band and true cowboy at heart. He embraced the ranch way of living; loved horses and was quite the collector of guns. He loved his family and was always involved in family events. He was the coach of his kids sports, a golfer, an avid Harry Potter movie and Dr. Pol watcher, cologne connoisseur, professional checkbook balancer and a lover of the mountains. Many nights you could find him swinging in his childhood porch swing enjoying a good beer.
Terry was cremated. A Celebration of Life will be held at 10:00 a.m., Saturday March 30, 2024 at Christ Lutheran Church, 3509 SW Burlingame Rd, Topeka, KS 66611.
