Late night, still crying. I didn't even get to meet the man yet I feel to have such a big connection to him. He shouldn't have left me, I love you dad. I always will.

My heartfelt sympathies to Tim and aroha to Marie and family. I'll never forget Terry's smiling face and the wonderful times our group of friends had. One of Terry's many passions was fishing and he taught me how to surfcast - a skill a will always treasure. RIP

My deepest sympathies go out to Family and friends....Terry was a bright, friendly and energetic beacon of hope to me with his ventures (Arch Hill Gallery, his selfless input in Te Urewera). Very saddened by this news.
RIP bro.
