Terry The Nice Guy

Never knew a bully that

didn’t like Terence.

Never knew a person that

Terence didn’t love.

Even as a tiny boy lives around

Terence filled with … life.

Strong and silent.  The definition of.

Hunter. Fisher.  Marksman.  Archer.

Like his hero, fisher of …people.

Embracer of life.  Fighter

against death.  Cancer never met

a fiercer foe.

Now and forever in a circle of

Loving family and friends from far and near

preparing his way, easing him into the light

like the one that has shone, always, from

the beautiful face of Terry the Nice Guy.
