Terry 'ACL' Hammond (11/19/2010)

I was just contacted by a Minister in Casey, IL that Terry (ACL) passed away today from a heart attack while working on the farm.

I don't know what to say... I'm in a fog... I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels like they just lost their best friend...

I'll post more as I get more info.

Jody has a paypal account to use and he'll give that to Cindy/family later on when things settle down some - he will also get some flowers from the donations, he won't spend much so the remainder goes to the family.

Update: 11/20 - Services might be Mon/Tue 11/22-23 but the family has yet to meet w/funeral home. Once we know more and when a public service is planned we'll post something.

Holy.....
That saddens me greatly

SWEET MOTHER OF LITTLE DEBBIE,,,

I'm stunned. Just stunned.

.......

This is so bad, words just won't come. My thoughts are with TLC and the family, and all the members here.

I promised....

No way!!!!!!

NO NO NO NO NO. no no no no no.

I just felt my heart break.

Unbelievable, a bunch of us just stayed on that farm and visited with him.
A terrible loss for many and especially his family. So sorry to hear this.

What a terrible loss. I was fortunate enough to meet Terry earlier this year at PuttSTOC. My life is richer for the time I was able to spend with him. Thoughts and prayers to TLC and the family. God speed, Terry.

I can't believe what I am reading! Tell me it isn't so.
Thoughts go out to his family and friends.

Say it is not so.

Prayers and thoughts to Cindy, Macy and Mitch, his sisters and family.

Gods Speed my friend.

It's just . . . unbeliveable!

There just aren't words . . .

Shuey

I just cannot believe it. I never met him in person but it seemed like I knew him very well. Just feel sick!!

Not sure what to say. Prayers to the family.

I am not a happy person right now.

Terry, the world has lost an icon and I have lost a friend.

Godspeed ACL.

This is awful!

What an unforgetable, loveable character.

My sincere condolences to the family

We never met, yet I felt that I knew him and will miss his humor, his stories and his posts. Heartfelt condolences to his family and many friends. He was someone with a lust of life with a personality larger than life that will be missed and yet remembered for years to come whenever people come together

Thanks for the moments of laughter. God speed.
