Terry had a love for learning and an inner core of integrity. He was a man of his word, loyal and kind. He could be seen helping a neighbor in a snowstorm, although it meant more to him if no one knew. He worked hauling hay, landscaping for Clearfield Landscaping, making fishing rods for Browning Manufacturing, plant operator for Salt Lake City, Electrical Apprentice and has worked the past 23 years for Logan City Light and Power as a metering supervisor. Some of his choicest friends were the colleagues he was blessed to associate with. Terry had a love for home and family. His loving guidance to his children defined the title of Father. He taught his children early that they had a special haven in the world at home. He taught them that their real best friends were the members of their own family. Terry was a talented composer and poet. He was quiet about his talent but his light warmed many dark corners of the world and was never hidden. He always steered away from the praise of mankind. His music and words echo in the hearts of his family and friends. He taught his children early to love their Heavenly Father, truth and hard work. This is the legacy he leaves. He beautified his corner of the world and had a love for creating a tapestry of flowers and trees where weeds once stood. He is survived by his wife Shanna, Hyrum; daughter, Tiffany (Bryan) Skelton, Salt Lake City; son, Cody, serving an LDS Mission in the Columbus Ohio Mission; son, Christopher, Hyrum; daughter, Jennifer, Hyrum. He is also survived by his parents, Mountain Green; four brothers, Jon (Karen) Hugie, Syracuse, Kim (Kathy) Hugie, Mountain Green, Paul (Paulette) Hugie, Peterson, David (Diane) Hugie, Layton; four sisters, Glenda (Larry) Pentz, Croydon, LuAnn (Joe) Pentz, Croydon, Denise (Wayne) Price, Idaho Falls, Idaho, and Tresa (Tony) Jones, Morgan; several nieces, nephews, great-nieces and nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins.
