Terry Reid - Aka Mr. Miyagi - Rest in peace...Gas on
Moderator: hemingray
Terry was one of my best friends....but he was a friend to all of us. I'm so glad that Larry wrote that....but I thought I was alone. I would hit send...and wonder what Terry was going to post. It was either hysterical...or so "Terry" in his mind.

Dave...I'm not surprised....since we already had the "Mr. Miyagi" Memorial for Pat Morita and Chadd and Mr. Bill visited "Mr. Miyagi's" tombstone in that old cemetary...DAVE wrote:I thought this is some kind of a joke.

Gas on Chadd.
From now on the board....we'll have to say WWTS. What Would Terry Say....and then give it a shot....but I doubt we'll be able to replicate him.
Terry loved the board...and he loved quadding...Thankfully....we can work through this together.

Terry was happy to help you move out here....That's what Terry did. He'd crawl over razor blades to help a friend.

BC....I was serious. I would be honored and Terry would expect it. We need one last issue of GQ Magazine...Final Edition.BearCat wrote:My God ,Ken. I'm at a complete loss for words. My heartfelt condolences. Friendships forged over the net, some would say its impossible, I say you dont need to meet face to face to call one a friend. I'll miss ya Terr!
God Bless

I know it will be hard....but you know...I felt a lot better putting together my photo spread of "Terry's Last Ride".
Terry would say "fuckin A"
Terry and I talked about you often.....Terry said many times "We have to figure out someday how to ride with BC....that would be a blast"

Ken, thinking of the GQ cover as I write and pace the floor. I know how he would have wanted it to look...LOL that Bastard!!! But Im trying to figure out how to mix what Im feeling into it...About riding...The last line on my lifes "to do" list as of right now is riding the California Rockies with the Obsession Crew. If its a memorial ride then I will do what I can to try.

No rush BC....at least all the Terry photos are now in that one photo spread. The last one...Terry in his underwear dancing on my trailer, is a classic.
Mark it on your calendar for next year....we'll find you a quad...somewhere and you'll hear Terry stories around the fire for hours.
His daughter told me today....that he loved this site and his friends here...she said she would come over to visit, and he'd make her sit and read the posts and look at the photos. That really made my day.

Thanks Brad....like I said in the other post....He was a friend to all. I feel better knowing I have you guys...I hope you do to.
It will be one of Terry's regrets....He and I both have wanted for a year to ride with you...the timing never worked out.

Yeah, I do too. Lets make sure you and I ride this year.
We never know how much time we have. It's part of the truth of our existence.

Thanks for that Ken....
Aside from all the stubborness out of both of us...and Terry being Terry... there are a lot of things I won't forget...on my trip out to CA he called me to check where I was at constantly...I think you all read that thread...it was kinda silly...but funny.....he was there when I had my flat in NV...that sucked being in the middle of Nevada and getting a flat tire...thank God for cell phones...then when I got to CA I didn't have any of my stuff for two weeks...it was being shipped out seperately.....I know this is really gay...but he gave me yogurts and fruit and tried giving me these monstrous muffins called Otis Spud..???...something or another...lol...being a chick of course I have to look at the total fat grams..it was like 80 grams of fat...I'm exaggerating a tad...lol...I passed on the muffins ... and he let me borrow a fricken mattress to put in the living room of my "new" digs and his PC till I got my stuff.
He also felt bad I guess because I didn't really have anything to do during the day in the beginning...so he offered me his house key...to watch tv or take my dog over for a walk... I appreciated it so much.
Even though I didn't know Terry all that long...he did speak a lot about his daughter and grand-daughter and was very proud to show me the pics in his house of them. I never met his daughter but she sounds like a great kid....I say 'kid' because I'm 42...
He also talked a lot about you guys...a lot of the things he would say would make me laugh. It's the funny, goofy, positive things that I'll remember....
That's true Brad, as far as not knowing how much time we have....

I just talked with his brother David, who lives in Salt Lake. Terry had a 95% blockage in his artery....Pretty wild, since aside from his Otis Spunkmeier muffins.....yogurt and fruit was his mainstay.
And anyone who's been to his house...knows that his stove likely hasn't been turned on since he moved in 14 years ago. So he didn't eat fried foods either....never smoked, drank rarely.

hope it was not the "dropped" bag of food that he found that was a contributing factor . . . I cannot help but laugh when I think of that thread . . .
