Deepest sympathies to your family, i was so shocked to hear that Terry was taken so young. I worked on the forecourt at bp from 2006 to 2010 when Terry was there and always wanted to be a mechanic. He gave me lots of tips and pointers and direction of where to go and what to do, now I run one of the biggest light vehicle mechanic workshops in the south island. He had so much time for everyone and honestly could say without meeting Terry i wouldn't be where i am today. Thinking of you all at this time

I´m so so sorry Maria, Mickayla and Brooke. This is truly heartbreaking . The last time I saw Terry I tooted at him in the Strathallan garden then asked him where a house I was looking for was in the complex. He gave me a guided tour and he spoke proudly of you Maria
