Terry was an "eccentric", but don't let that undermine that he was a tragically mentally ill man who still had moments of lucidity. It's sad that he didn't get the help he needed, and things ended the way they did.

Happy birthday, Terry. He killed himself on my birthday, so in his honor, I have to kill myself on his birthday. Not this one, I still like being alive for now.
 
Happy Birthday Terry!

I realized something important that probably never occured to Terry during his life. When he co-composed Risen, the main hymn of Temple OS, the melody imo strikingly follows the words to the Paschal Troparion, a Easter hymn and the most important one of the year to Eastern-Catholics and Orthodox. It's so old that its author and date are unknown, likely passed down orally through Easter liturgical tradition. The lyrics are as follows:

Christ is risen from the dead,
trampling down death by death,
and to those in the tombs
bestowing eternal life!

Have a listen and see if you can hear it too. I think this is amazing since technically God wrote the piece through a random music generator Terry composed. Should this be the case, titling the hymn "Risen" is only fitting for a song so close to an Easter hymn. May King Terry rest in peace and victory.
