Terry was a great friend and co-worker with us here at Swift. He performed his job to the best of his abilities and as a result achieved the level of Diamond status which is the highest ranking a driver can achieve at Swift. So many people are saddened by the loss of such a great friend and co worker. He'll be dearly missed
