That was my oldest brother. He was not homeless. He had family in Vegas and Los Angeles. I had put a missing report out on him 12-29-16. We had not heard from Terry since 12-34-16. I spoke to a detective prouty. On about the 30th or 31st of December I again spoke with her and she told me he had contact with the police but did not disclose what date or time. I found out that my brother had been killed by a DUI driver on Christmas morning when I received a bill for him from the hospital on2-3-17. I called the hospital seeing that it had the trauma center. I finally was able to speak to someone in risk management who told me he had passed. We had been looking for Terry over a month. They said they couldn't find any family members but they found a address to send his bill to. It has been devastating for his family and friends that loved him so much. I found out that my brother was cremated on 1-30-17. It really hurts

I just read about your brother. I'm so sorry of how he died and the way you were told.  I didn't know him just reading the story, I greave for you and your family Mary. My condolences to you and prayers.

 

 

 

Terrance was my oldest brother as well and he had my name put on his neck when I was younger that's how much he loved and cared for me. Terry was a loving kind giving and caring man who loved his family and would do anything and everything to protect his family yes he had his moment's like every other human on this earth but he definitely didn't deserve to die this way I don't hate but I hate the woman who took my brother from our lives its not right she needs to know that she has really damaged hid family and friends and now his young daughter will have to grow up without her father. SHAME ON CLAUDIA GONZALEZ- NINE...

U thank you for your prayers Anna Rivieccio. I just had a service for him. It's so heart breaking that my brother is gone. That's someone I was raised with. That I will never see again and that hurts. I would talk to him at least 3 times a week. I know I am going to have to seek counseling. It hurts so bad. Please continue to pray for me. May God bless you
