My deepest sympathies to Richard and Terry's family. Richard and Terry were kind enough to teach me the "in's and out's" of the painting business. They were the most fun and kind bosses I ever had...though Terry teased me every chance he got...especially when the laquer "went to my head" in the beginning...part of his charm! I will always fondly remember house sitting for them when they went on vacation and especially being able to stay at the house with Terry to take care of him when Richard had to go out of town to work. We became more family than co-workers! My deepest sympathy for Richards loss of a loving companion and for Terrys sisters' loss of a loving brother. He will be deeply missed and dearly remembered as he so touched my heart with his love and friendship. I love you Terry Jager!##imported-begin##Michele (Shelly) Poisson##imported-end##

Terry and I went to Imlay City High School together. No one was better liked than Terry and I have so many wonderful memories of fun times that we shared. I was fortunate to see Terry from time to time over the past few years and wished that he had lived closer. My condolences to Richard, Terry's sisters, family and all who will miss him. All I can add is that Heaven will be having fun times now that Terry is a resident! Love you Terry!!!##imported-begin##Janet Hess##imported-end##

Diana and I are very sad to hear of Terry's passing. Although it was a long struggle, you never heard Terry complain. He would always had a smile on his face and would brighten up the room. That smile, at times, made me wonder what he was up to! To Terry's loved ones, our thoughts and prayers are with you. Richard you too were just as courageous through this terrible disease that took Terry's earthly body. Take solace in the great memories Terry leaves behind. I know that when Diana and I think back on our time with Terry we will come away with a smile.##imported-begin##Joe and Diana Baranoski##imported-end##

When we lose friends, we're left with memories. Of all the memories of Terry those that always float to the top are of his laughter. We'd laugh until we cried, laugh until it hurt and laugh to bring it all into perspective. Terry had a keen ability to find humor in little things, nurture it into the giggles and continue to tickle at it until you were in a state of hysterical and uncontrollable laughter. The effect has lightened, enriched and lengthened our lives. He loved life, relished and respected the gifts of his maker and humbly took his place in the greater plan.

He will be missed, thought of often, and the sound of his voice and his laughter will live in our mind for the rest of our days. Thank you Terry, for the wealth of little things that have made our lives better.

We extend our deepest sympathy to Terry's family and especially to Richard. We mourn with you.

"Live well, learn plenty, laugh often, love much." Ralph Waldo Emerson

Richard, I was so sad to read of Terry's passing. Steve and I have enjoyed many occasions with you and Terry. He always made us laugh, especially the bloody mary mornings. It has been a long struggle for Terry and I am sure he is at peace. We will be thinking about you and will see you in the spring.

I met Terry through mutual friends in 1978. From that moment on, I knew we would end up being great friends. His genuine personality, smile, and laughter will always live in my memmories and in my heart. No one can ever take that from me. It's one of the many gifts he gave to everyone that was in his life. I love you Terry!
Richard, find strength through family and friends. Even though Terry is no longer physically with you, he too, along with the love that you both shared will live on. Take good care my friend. Paul##imported-begin##Paul Mosketti##imported-end##
