His presence will be missed by all who know him. His words will forever echo in their hearts.
“My name is Terry Love, I tell no Lie, I’ll be a Capricorn until the day I die.”
“I’m every woman's fantasy and every man's nightmare.”
“I’m worth four hundred fifty million and I’m BROKE.”
“I rest my case.”
