In Memory

Terry left us on Jan. 3, 2018, after a long illness. He grew up in Akron, Ohio, and received a scholarship to Western Reserve Academy before matriculating at Amherst.

Terry was modest, friendly and always had a twinkle in his eye. He played varsity soccer and was news editor of the News Bureau. He dominated the bridge games at Alpha Delta Phi and cost several of us a lot of money.

The college achievement we admired most was his election to Phi Beta Kappa his junior year. He became the undergraduate president.

After Amherst he pursued his academic interests, graduated from Yale Law School and also received an M.B.A. from Stanford. In between graduate schools, he served as an officer in the Coast Guard.

For a number of years Terry practiced law with the prominent Cincinnati law firm Taft Stettinius & Hollister. When he became more intrigued by businesses and projecting their values in the stock market, he joined Scudder, Stevens & Clark, investment counsel, becoming a vice president. In 1980 he left to form his own firm, managing money.

Terry was predeceased by his wife, Jane MacRae, and a son, Douglas. He is survived by five children: Kimberly MacNeille, Katy Price, Timothy Garrigan, Mac Garrigan and William Garrigan; 13 grandchildren; and a sister, Kathleen Unger.
