Besides writing for the newspaper, he has served as a copy editor, assignment editor and managing editor, returning to reporting and taking photos on a full-time basis three years ago.

He has lived in Raritan Township for 39 years, first in Reaville and then in Croton since marrying Pat Baldwin, a Croton native.

Office manager for RTS Packaging in Kingwood, Pat leads the volunteers who handle back-office financial operations during the fair. Terry and Pat were given the 2010 Roger Everitt Award.
