My condolences to Marion and the family on the death of Terry. We had many good memories with Terry and although I had not seen him in many years, I know Peter kept in touch with him. I know he will be dearly missed.

My most vivid memory of my cousin Terry was when my family (my dad is Mike Toyzan, Tony's brother) visited his family in Saginaw one summer and we were swimming in their pool in the backyard with his sisters and brother Perry - he and Perry were doing crazy dives into the pool and in the background a phonograph was playing In A Gadda Da Vida (quite loudly :) ) - such a wonderful time we had that day!!
It is the little things in life that make a lifetime of memories...........I cherish that one to this day.....

I'm Dina and live in Columbus and was a cousin to Terry. I'm Uncle Chuck's daughter. I was very sad to hear about Terry's passing. I'm sorry that Aunt Marian and Perry and Cindy and Toni lost a treasured member of their family. I feel lucky to be a part of the extended Toyzan family and fondly remember all of our Toyzan reunions in Michigan, and the one trip to Albuquerque. He will always be a part of the legacy of such a beautiful family.
