I understand he had a business here. He came here from Long Eaton Nottinghamshire, mikado road with wife Jennifer. I have traced his wife who claims the marriage was toxic and his sister who says the marriage was bliss, can anyone shed light on the truth please. Are there any pictures of Terry please from around 1970 to 1980.

I wish to visit his last resting place to pay my respects. 

Kindest regards

R Dunham

Hello my name is Robert and I am 78 years old. I live in Long Eaton and never met Terry nor even knew how to spell his surname. However I am interested in finding out why he was driven to commit suicide at such an early age. I want to locate his grave to lay flowers. I want to know where he worked, his profession and basically any information about him and especially see a photograph of him in his 20,s

I mean no harm nor disrespect to his memory. Thank you.

Hello 78 yo Robert from LE. I can tell you a lot and show you photos but not unless you tell me why you are so interested. Are you related? A friend? Be honest.

Hello, I wish to meet with you and discuss Terry, it is very personal to me and my wife. Do you know where Terry and Jenny lived in Lincs after leaving mikado road Long Eaton? I contacted Jenny and visited her in Bourne but she would not talk with me, her present partner told me the marriage was very toxic. I was given his sisters phone number who told me the marriage was bliss? I explained the reason to her why I would like to know more but no response. I cannot ask Jenny , I don’t wish to cause her any more grief. The reason I got the surname wrong because there is one version in the Long Eaton advertiser and another in his obituary notice. I have nothing but admiration for Terry and have visited the graveyard to find his grave but cannot. Please give an old man the satisfaction of knowing more and seeing a photograph of him. I am near my end and don’t have much money but I am willing to pay.

Kindest regards Bob.

Well now Bob, you still haven't told me why it's very personal to you and your wife. I would like to know that. What's your email address?

During the period 1970 to 1975 Terry and his friend called Joe (I don’t know his surname either )used to frequent a pub in Breaston on a Friday night live music  do, that is where my wife met him and had a brief affair while I was in Africa. I just want to put a face to the name. Terry,s sister was told the reason so you could possibly check with her. I think my wife fell in love with him and that is why we wish to lay flowers at his grave. I am not interested in any other aspect of Terrys life nor wish to pursue any claims on his estate. When Marlene knew him he only had 2 children, and Adam is about the same age as our daughter . Please do not share this info with Jennifer as it can only cause her grief .

That is why I wanted to tell this to you face to face.

Yours sincerely 

Bob

Thank you for your openness, Bob. Joe's surname was Thompson. He ended up living  somewhere Sandiacre way and running a pub.

If you email me at [email protected] I will respond. Let's move this conversation from the public forum to a private one. I will send you a photo. I will show you his grave.
