    Thoughts and prayers to the family. Terry probably wasn't aware of his influence on me. I was a young punk working for my fathers dealership. Terry was employed at the dealership and kept me out of trouble a number of times when I was 13-16 years old. He wasn't afraid to get after me and challenge me, helping me develop a strong work ethic; while also looking after me as the 'owners kid'.
