He also loved going to the races at Spartan Speedway, enjoyed mowing the yard, and was known for smoking a good cigar. One of his greatest joys was attending his grandchildren’s sports events.

New Terry well in high school. He lived just down the street. We in summers selling pop and candy at softball games to raise money for the Key Club. Remember his 49 Chevy, a ride to school many a days. Haven’t seen him since high school as I left the area. He was a great guy.

We’ve been neighbors for the past 31 years. Mr. Fenn was a neighborhood staple and a neighborhood watch, on most pleasant days you could find him sitting in his lawn chair, in the front yard. We had many conversations, over the years, as I walked our dog, Oreo, past his house, almost daily. Oreo would cut across the neighbor’s yard to get a pat on the head and rest in the shaded, cool grass next to him. He will be missed and always remembered. Our deepest sympathy to the family.

We were neighbors of Terry and Vicki for quite a few years. Then years later we ended up on the same bowling league. My dad and Terry refereed high school football and basketball games together. Terry was one of the funniest guys I’ve ever met. Rest in peace!
