So shocked to hear of Terry's passing. He was such a fun guy, I remember the many laughs we all had when working for Andre at Escargot . Whenever I saw him all those years later he was still the same Terry always joking and pulling your leg about something.Goodbye Terry I will never forget you and the many laughs we shared.
