Wanted to give my condolences to the family from Legends Barbershop. Terrell used to come in and always gave us all a good laugh and had a big smile no matter what was going on. I know he’ll be missed as a father, friend, mentor and whatever role he played. I pray that the God of all comfort (2cor 1:3,4) be with your family during these difficult times and bring you comfort that he will wipe away your tears and do away with death forever. (Rev 21:3,4)

My forever Brother in Law, my cut up buddie, my friend. I have so many memories of this guy, they called him "Terrell". Your personality was big as your smile n your heart. You loved your family you always spoke of them, you always wanted to fix a situation. God gave you your wings and I respect that, see you on the other side Brother in Law. Peace
