Memories and Condolences
for James Terrance

Not sure what to say?





As we approach the 20th year since first meeting, "Pop"Terrance, I remember the quiet pride you displayed, as you walked in, and around 'Tha Ship'. Just looking, and soaking in how God has favored you.To see your son, and namesake blessed with a church and loving congregation, surely made you happy. What an honor to have met you sir, and when we celebrate your son 'Jamie', we also celebrate God's gift to us - through you. And may YOUR light, always shine through him. Thank you for those memories, continue to rest in victory... till we meet again. Respectfully, Gerald Brooks&Family

To the Terrance Family, my family, this indeed was an unexpected loss. Yet indeed God knows best. My godfather was a very unique person, strong, stern, yet caring. He was also a model father and husband, it was always a great feeling to be around people you know woould support and encourage your success. Even though he had his own ways of showing it, I'm sure he was very pround of each of his children and most grateful to God blessing him with a wonderful wife. I can't agree with the term "gone too soon," but I can definitely agree with term "gone but not forgotten." Your legacy will forever live on, and every year at my birthday I'll remember one day and many years before me God Blessed the world with a wonderful man.

Be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might, because he loves you all and we do too.

Death is a heartache that no person can heal.
Memories are things that no person can steal.
Some may forget that your loved one is gone, but you will remember, no matter how long.

Although we may not understand why, and find it hard to accept, we rejoice with you and thank our Heavenly Father for the life he lived and the legacy he left for his family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Love,
Lynn & Aven
