Condolences to Mrs. Jo Lynn and the entire DeRouen family, Terry was a Lead Operator at the Sulfur Complex when I hired on at Texaco, it was a pleasure to know and work with Terry, he was very knowledgeable of the unit process and enjoyed sharing it as well as all his experiences. It was definitely a loss to the unit when he decided to retired, he was truly missed and now to know that he has gone on to glory saddens my heart, but God know best. Memories of Terry will be forever everlasting.

Terry, you were the only one in the neighborhood who didn't do crazy stuff like, me, Ricky, Randy, and Bo. You were rock solid.
