Terry was a stalwart of Nelson Performing Arts Competitions. He always attended to duties without question while events were in performance, and his dedication to the committee was much appreciated. I remember him him with affection.

How saddened I am to read of Terry´s passing. To Eileen and family, please accept my sincere condolences.
A kind, thoughtful, enthusiastic man always time for a chat, his perfect handwriting I´ll never forget.
That´s how I´ll remember Terry a true gentleman and a friend.
A colleague of Terry´s Nhawhatu days.
