Default Terry Carney,,,R.I.P.

------I have just heard that my good friend and partner, Terry Carney lost his battle with cancer this past weekend. Although Jan and I had been expecting this news sometime in the near future, it still is enormously painful. Once you were Terrys friend you were his friend forever. We will miss him greatly!!!!........Bill S

Bill, I know that you knew Terry for years and years. I was sorry to hear the news this morning. I saw him on Saturday and his family only hoped his passing would come quickly.
His last words to me were "come visit me next time you're in town".

Very sorry to hear that Bill. You two were together so much that when I first met you guys I kept getting the two of you mixed up. He was one of the good guys.

Terry was a great guy...he will be very missed in our hobby. This all happened so fast. My deepest condolences to his entire family.

I didn't know him personally,but saw him referenced many times on here.
I was hoping to bump into him someday.
My sincere condolences to his friends and family.

Terry was also my good friend and partner. I will miss him a lot. Like Bill said, once he was your friend, he was your friend forever. He always had a positive attitude.
Even when I saw him just before his first Chemo session he was very upbeat.
I remember one of his favorite things to say to me was: I'm having so much fun with these cars, it should be against the law.

I will miss him greatly. RIP Terry.

Bill

My wife Sue and I visited him several times, the last time being the day he passed. All family members were there. Memorial Service at St Bede's in Ingleside, IL. at 10 am tomorrow. We worked Metro Milwaukee many a day. I'll miss him.

They are trying to gather all his parts, model cars, cars, etc. and sell evrything off to gain some money for his daughter Shancey. The house is going to be sold. I'm not sure what's going to happen with the Ram Air GTO and War Bonnet Vette at Dana's in Florida. Everything has to be liquidated to benefit his daughter. He's got some rare parts.

By the way, the family is having an "Irish Funeral" at Fast Freddies in Fox Lake some time after the memorial!

I have also known Terry for about the last five years, but it felt like I knew him for my whole life. Terry was that way he was a real car guy and a great friend. you knew it was Terry calling when the first words you heard were "HEY HOT SHOT". I know where ever Terry is now he is making people smile. GOD BLESS YOU TERRY.
