For several years Terry "lived" in the Deep Ellum/Fair Park area.
Homelessness forced him to the streets.
Everyone knew him because of his deftness at card tricks and stand-up comedy routines--Terry can tell a mean joke!
After a long haul, Terry landed an apartment in CitySquare's housing program. He's successfully maintained his housing for several months.
Thanks to a special program offered by AARP, Terry is set to join our team as an employee in the Food Pantry.
As is typical with Terry, he dropped by on Monday to visit. I was swamped, but finally we got to sit and talk.
He presented me with a Christmas gift: the Snoopy socks pictured here. I wore them proudly today!
Terry is my friend.
I am fortunate to know him.
Merry Christmas!
