Terry was a great guy. I had the oppertunity to visit him in 2000 at his home. I drove out to champaign to pick up a boat from him. The boat was an oddly colored yellow biesmyer. I commented to him about the ugly color. Later on that day he took me to his home where i saw probally a dozen pictures of yellow boats. Even though i put my foot in my mouth it didn't seem to bother him one bit. You could tell from terrys house his whole life was about boat racing. Even before i strarted driving race boats terry always knew my name and took time to talk to me. A lot of people probally don't know that terry was a councilman at one time in Champaign. what a great guy. he will be missed.
