I cleaned for Terry and got to know him very well. I will never forget the many great conversations we had. He loved his family dearly and always talked about them. He had a warm heart and a great smile. We will miss you Terry. You will always be remembered ♥️
— Charlotte, October 28, 2024To all of Terry's family and friends. Please except our sincere condolences. My daughter Amber was a friend of the family many moons ago, & I'd often see Terry at the races or out & about in our travel's. Was fortunate to catch up with him last month & he always had a smile & that great laugh! There's something to be said about a great sense of humour.
My brother Glenn is a long time friend & it was with great sadness that I had to inform him of TP's passing.
Take care of each other & please know that many of us are thinking of you at this sad time. May knowing that people out here are holding you in our hearts, helps you to find a place in time where only smiles find your face & no more tears. Sincerely
Jane, Amber & Glenn Stevens 💞

Dear Mike & Kelly. My deepest condolences to you & your family on your Dads sudden loss. I have lived right behind Varney Raceway for 21 yrs now. I watched your Dad in many races over the years. That was something he loved doing for us all to see. May the memories you have all made together in your life times help you through these difficult times & bring you peace & healing 🙏 🫶 Joan

— Brian Cuco, October 22, 2024My deepest condolences to the Pardy Family. Terry was a great neighbour and a greater friend. He leaves a huge legacy in the racing world. I have many fond memories as a fellow competitor and hanging out in the pits.
Rest in Peace my Friend. 🏁🏁
We havent known Terry that long a year is all .But we had the Honor of serving him in our restaurant Mama'z Diner .I've enjoyed his laughs and giggles and it feels like we have known him a life time . Hes really gonna be missed . A couple story that really stands out to me is offering him coffee Decaf or Regular? His response was I need the real stuff to keep my physique looking good . Another story is Terry , Jake and Bill and Charlie sitting all together and Jake started this prank calling to our restaurant from the table without us knowing .We soon caught on as Terry would give it away by his laugh and smiles that lit up the room .
You are so missed and in such a short time we had such a great friendship .Love you #29
To the family I'm so sorry for your loss.
Terry was an awesome person at the track in Varney.....just to talk to or have a bevie with.
Gruff looking but a heart of gold!
I'll miss you buddy but I know I'll see you when I get to where you are.
Rest easy my friend.
Mike and Kelly, we are so sorry for your loss. We have you in our hearts at this time. Much sympathy goes to to your entire family. Lots of love from ours to yours.
