I’ve known Terry since I was 9yrs. Old, he wouldn’t hurt a fly ! He couldn’t, he had been a drunk over 30 yrs. I know this for sure I’m 45 now. He was my moms ex boyfriend and she stayed in church ! He had a good heart ,he just didn’t know what to do with it.

If the Terry Thomas in question is an older African-American, ~5′ 8″, about 65-66 y/o, he’s also a registered child molester on California’s Megan’s Law.

No love lost IMO when a child molester dies. It matters not to me how they go, but unnatural deaths are much preferred.
