Terry died Oct 2 1987 from a heart attack. Terry, Charlie Richmond (Rich) & myself were the best of friends. Terry & Rich lived next door to each other & I was about 3 blocks away. We were in the same scout troop, went to the same church, played church league softball & basket ball toghter. It's been almost 23 years since Terry died & to this day I still miss him.
