A wonderful man, generous, thoughtful, intelligent and funny.
Terry was very much the life and soul of family gatherings but also a shrewd businessman and a person of the highest values.
Terry will be fondly remembered and greatly missed by all who knew him.
So Terry, it is with great sadness that we say farewell but it truly was an honour to have you in our lives.
Much love and many Happy memories.

A wonderful, caring and generous man. Thoughtful and giving of his time, nothing was too much trouble, a true gentleman.
Highly intelligent and with a great sense of humour, Terry was very much the heart and soul of family gatherings but also a shrewd businessman.
Very much loved and respected by all who knew him, Terry will be remembered and missed greatly by us all.

Terry was the most amazing, kind hearted, understanding Man you would ever meet. To me, he was my grandad. The best grandad I could have ever asked for, always being there for me when needed. Never failing to put a smile on my face or to give me generational advice that would help me in any situation bizarre or expected. His actions, so selfless and done with the intent to help others and right the wrongs. Terry was the man I strive to be in the future. Strong minded, kind and caring at all times. Although he may have physically departed this world, he hasn’t left emotionally in our minds. His words and actions forever engraved in our minds, a simple reminder of the extraordinary time we all spent with grandad. I will forever miss you grandad. Your silly jokes, amazing stories that would captivate me for hours on end; your advice I still follow to this day and will pass down to my future children still stay strong in my mind. You’ve had an amazing time on this earth and it didn’t go to waste. You’ve helped shape me into the person I am today. Your gone but never forgotten. Even though your not physically with me anymore, I can still see your warm smile; acting as a guiding light up us all to help guide us through this tough time. Goodbye but not forever Terry.

Love, Jack xxxx

Terry was the most amazing grandad, farther and friend anyone could ask for. Terry’s kind hearted nature made him a crowd favourite. He was kind, understanding, generous and extremely thoughtful, he was everything you’d hope to be in life; always helping those in need whenever possible, ensuring your safety and comfort over his. Terry was the most amazing grandad I could’ve asked for, and only his death has revealed the true effect of himself on the people around him. Not a single bad word can be said about grandad. Goodbye, but not forever, rest easy.
