Like many, I was stunned and saddened to receive news earlier this week that Terence had died.
Terence started writing articles for Operation Werewolf years ago after we had corresponded for some time and shared our ideas, found our points of agreement and similarities, and had a mutual respect for each other’s work.
Over the next few years, I helped him develop his brand, an easy task for someone so dedicated and such an obvious example of an individual who practiced what they preached to the letter.
At various points, I underwent his coaching programs and enjoyed the guidance and critiques he provided with honesty, positivity, and what I felt was a genuine desire to help me improve- not just physically, but as a human being.
I am terribly disappointed I never got the chance to meet Terence in this physical reality, although many such meet-ups were planned and fell by the wayside due to “life” happening.
It’s a sharp reminder that we never have as many opportunities as we think to spend time with those we admire, those we respect, or those we love.
Life doesn’t often give second chances.
I appreciated Terence as a man on a path with heart- it is obvious to see as I read so many posts this week about the way he positively affected so many over the entire world.
There is no greater testament to a man’s life than the lives he touched for the better- the people he changed, and improved.
This week I’ll honor his life by training with him fixed in my mind, and make each breath a prayer of gratitude that I got to know him, even at a distance.
May his memory live on among those who worship strength, beauty, dedication, and love.
