    To Terry's family: I remember my first week of working at MCC. That's when I met Terry. We made friends right away! Terry made it easy to be his friend as he was always upbeat, kind and willing to help solve any IT issues right away. Never did I see him without a smile, showing kindness, giving good advice, and a funny joke now and then. My friend of 16 years will be truly missed. Family, please accept my condolences and my prayers for healing and peace. Ameenah

    Terry was a colleague and a friend. I worked with him in various capacities over the many years he and I spent together at McLennan Community College. Terry was always quick to say hi, was always smiling, and was a great colleague in supporting our programs (teaching) and college (IT support). I will miss him.
