Terry had a 34+ year career with the PA Department of Environmental Resources (now the Pa Department of Environmental Protection) took him to Harrisburg as the Director of the Office of Natural Resources in February 1988. Later that year he was created a noble of the mystic shrine at Zembo Temple where he became an active member of the Drum and Bugle Corps and later the Zembo Concert Band and the dance band known as the Nobles of Note.

Terry married Sandra Jean Grove in 1974. She has been a faithful companion and supporter throughout his masonic and shrine travels. They are the proud parents of Shawn, Megan and Derek who have blessed them with four granddaughters. Both sons are masons and shriners. Shawn served as Worshipful Master of Robert Burns Lodge No. 464 in 2007.
Retiring from his position as the Deputy Secretary for Field Operations in the PA Department of Environmental Protection in 2002 Terry took a position with Allegheny Energy in Monroeville, PA as the Director of Environmental Management. A second retirement in 2003 gave him the opportunity to devote more time to his Zembo Shrine activities. Although he still plays the trombone in a number of shrine and community bands, his passion is supporting Shriners Hospitals. He and Lady Sandra are shepherds who can frequently be found in the drivers lounge at the Philadelphia Shriners Hospital.
