| My condolences to Terry's family and friends. Thank you Terry for bringing a high level of professionalism to an industry that through the 70s and 80s was a hard place to make a living in Canada. RIP |

I am so sorry to her this. Terry has recently been performing in the area of my day job, Brantford, Ontario, and I've heard excellent reviews.
RIP Terry. |

As a friend and member of Terry's Band for 6 years in the 90's, goodbye old friend until we meet again.. Terry was the ultimate Professional and I learned a lot from him during the time we spent together as a "road" family. R.I.P.

I've had the pleasure of playing many gigs with Terry over the years, & got to record a few tunes with him including "Midnight Invitation".
Terry was a lover of the Pedal Steel Guitar & Dobro, & always featured one in his band.
Our condolences go out to Jeannie & the family as Terry has arrived at 'Our Lovin' Place'!
