Happy Birthday, Terry Brooks!

happybirthday-terry

Today is the birthday of one Terry Brooks!

I have known Terry for almost two decades now. He’s one of my favorite people. He is kind, smart, generous, has a wicked sense of humor, grumbles about Seattle sports teams almost as much as I do, and he works as hard as anyone else I know. He cares for his family, keeps his friends close, and knows he has the best fans in the world.

I am his WebDruid. But to me, he is friend, mentor, and second father.

Happy Birthday, Terry!
