I met Terry when he came home with a neighbor while on leave before going to Vietnam. Since Terry did not have a girl friend, my neighbor asked if I would spend some time with him.Those two weeks were some of the best times I ever had. When my mother made me go with a boy from our church,Terry followed us. When we stopped at a red light, I jumped out and got in the car with Terry and we took off. When he had to leave, it broke my heart. I will always remember the good times we had.

Rest in peace, my first love.
"your little rattlesnake."
