A pleasure to have known Terry who never failed to raise a smile wherever he went.
His knowledge and kindness to birds was outstanding and bringing people closer to wildlife and the countryside was a joy to experience.
A true Cornish Legend.
Rest now you lovely soul.

A wonderful countryman…and a true ‘gentle’ man and kindred spirit. The world is infinitely poorer without you Terry. I was proud to be your friend.
