Hard work and long hours were a normal routine. He farmed almonds, operated the family farmer's market stand throughout the region, and traveled throughout the state selling their flavored almonds at Harvest Festivals. Terry was much loved by his customers and those who worked with him. His constant smile, easy laugh, the glint in his eye and dry sense of humor were his. trademarks. An avid fan of the San Francisco 49ers, Terry often took his family to attend games. He enjoyed family trips to Disneyland and Hawaii. In particular, Terry enjoyed the opportunities he had to bring his wife and children back to England to visit family and see where he had grown up, When he could get away, Terry loved to fish at Fort Bragg for salmon and Eagle Lake for trout. Terry was a kind and gentle man. He enjoyed telling and hearing a good story, cooking, and bar-B-cuing for family and friends. He was very proud of his Yorkshire heritage. Terry's favorite times were working In the library and taking his children on every field trip at Notre Dame School.
