My wife,I, and two friends from our high school days went to a concert in 1972 at the old Auditorium Theater in Chicago. Those of you that know the theater know it was perfect acoustically. Terry was perfection without the theater, imagine what it sounded like with it! Afterwards we all headed to the Earl of Oldtown, a pub near Lincoln Park. We knew that Gord loved to jam there when in Chicago. We were fortunate to get the last table and sat with Terry and Gordon and talked for quite sometime. Both down to earth guys that we will always love dearly. Sitting only 8 feet from them while they jammed was a highlight of our lives. Rest in piece Terry as I last saw you at Fraze Pavilion, Kettering, Ohio, June 17th, 2010. With me was a friend from 35 years ago who also loves Gordon and Terry and all the gang. When I looked over she was crying as the songs they were singing were our favorite songs from 35 years ago. I will never forget that night! Love you guys and so does Sue!
