My deepest sympathy to Terry and family. Although I can not claim to understand the deep feelings they are feeling, I pray that they find peace in the love of their families and the caring concern of their friends.

My sincere condolences for TV and family. Like others have said loosing a child is a difficulty that is not easy to live with.

From Terry's Twitter....

" Dear readers: For reasons you understand, I'll be out of commission this week, the 1st of the SDSU football season. My family needs me now."

We understand, TV. Some things are just more important.

Re: New Vandrovecs

My heart and my families hearts go out to TV and his family. My wife met TV a couple of times at games in Indiana and Michigan and when I read her TV's Twitter she began to cry and was upset for the better part of the morning. Even now as I write this I have tears in my eyes and wish the Vandrovecs my best and pray that God keeps the other twin safe and well and gain strength to survive.

Re: New Vandrovecs

I hear ya Sturgisjeff. The morning I learned of this I shed some tears in the shower and again at lunch as I sat w/ my four children. We had a very close friend have a son at 23 weeks just a very short time ago. In fact, the very morning the Vandrovecs had their twins our friend was released to a Grand Forks hospital w/ her son. I shared the news of how well my friends premi son was doing w/ TV just hours before the Vandrovecs had their twins and he was excited. I still feel guilt that I gave them false hope.

We continue to pray for peace for them. God has a plan.

Re: New Vandrovecs

Tea, don't beat yourself up. You were offering Terry encouragement and I don't think that's a bad thing. Your heart was in the right place.

I felt pretty rotten all Sunday evening and through Monday. My friend in New York sent me a song today about a couple who lost a child. I listened to it and the tears started flowing.

I've had the chance to get to know Terry through my work at KJAM and whenever I'd see him at the games. Always polite and a kind word, even when he was busy and under a deadline. Heck, we even ran in the JazzFest 5K this summer (he finished WELL ahead of me). Just a good all-around person. Doesn't seem fair that this should happen to him and his family.

Terry's twitter says the celebration service is going to be Friday at Miller West Funeral Home on West 41st St. in Sioux Falls and a private funeral for the family Saturday. Instead of sending flowers, TV and his wife set up the Breley Ann Vandrovec fund at Sanford Health to go to NICU equipment, research and the like. So if any of you want to do that, I think that would be a fitting tribute.
