    It’s with a sad heart to hear of Terry’s death. Terry,Joe,Jim and myself’s friendship goes back more years than I can remember.
    Lots of laughs and loads of good times over the years.

      Thanks Marge. Mom often spoke fondly of the good times she and dad had with you and Jim and the gang at Hines Electric. Can’t thank you enough for coming to her funeral Mass. It meant a lot to Marc and I.
