I grew up with Terry as a father I never got to have. He was truly magnificent and wasn't afraid of being his goofy self. Without him, I am sure my life as a child and young adult would have been much blander. While he might not know it but he left a big impact on me and I wish I was able to tell him how much he mattered to me and I would do anything to have one more family event with him.
Our deepest condolences to the Wasescha Family on the passing of Terry. His knowledge and application in the plumbing trade showed the skills of a true master. I worked with Terry on the East Mill Creek Water Co. Board and saw the dedicated hours that were put forth in keeping the ditches cleaned and the water flow problems that were solved. Terry has been an anchor in our neighborhood and will be greatly missed as a friend and neighbor. We hope the family will find comfort in this time of loss.

All growing up, Terry was a fixture of our family. He had walk-in privileges to our home so most of my childhood memories of him started with the side door opening and him calling in letting us know he was here. He was so friendly and felt like family. (It wasn’t until high school that I learned I was the only person who has such a strong relationship with their plumber.) I’ll always remember his kind voice and positive energy. Thank you, Terry.
I worked with Terry at the East Mill Creek Water Company. He was dedicated and hard working. Terry kept the ditches clear and the water running year after year. Even when he was in the hospital the last time he made sure that someone helped me take care of a plumbing problem. I had no idea he wasn't well. He will be missed.
Helen and I have known Terry for over 30 years through working with him on numerous jobs and a little golfing. It was just two weeks ago that he completed a rough-in in our bathroom. He was always enjoyable, fun to be around and had a great sense of humor. I remember the time he came out to take care of a water issue for us on a Super Bowl Sunday, even though we told him it could wait until the next day. A fun fact about Terry is that none of us could ever find out his age. He was one-of-a-kind and will be sorely missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
May His Memory Be Eternal.
Larry & Helen Petersen
Our dear friend Terry will be sorely missed. He was far more than a brilliant plumber serving us since the 1960s but he knew all of us by name and we followed his life with interest. We hope to meet him in heaven since he passed so suddenly we didn’t have opportunity to thank him adequately for his kindnesses. We hope you family members will be comforted in your loss and sustained by his great example of kindness and hard work. Catherine Poelman and family
