Erik and Family - Terry was obviously a wonderful Grandpa, Dad, Husband, and friend. This is evident by the quality of responses and volume of condolences shared by everyone who knows him. There's no doubt Terry is an important person to many people at home and in the community. I will be thinking of Terry and the entire Northwood family.

Trish and family, please know we are so sad for you. We had no knowledge that Terry was ill, so his death is a shock. He was such a nice, gentle guy. I know you will miss him so much, but he will also be missed at Park Place a lot. Bless you and him. Al and Diane Nienhaus.
