    I was always very fond of Charlie in school and counted him as a friend. Occasionally, we would run into each other around town. I will miss his smile and friendly greetings and will always remember him fondly.

    I grew up in just down the street from the Terrell's. I fondly remember many afternoons talking with Chuck while he was working on his Corvette or Model A. He always was willing to talk to me and tell me about the cars he was working on. He was truely a nice person

    We have recently learned of the untimely passing of Charles Terrell. Chuck grew up in the same Elm Heights neighborhood as our children and attended elementary and high school with them. Years later when we lived at Meadowood, Chuck kindly assisted us in many thoughtful ways. We send our heartfelt sympathy to his wife, Chris, his sister, Glenda, to his father and to the rest of his family.
