During his leisure he enjoyed watching old movies, playing video games, researching his family history, and cooking. He had great pride in his Culinary Skills and his meal presentations were amazing. Terrell was also very humorous. His storytelling and his ability to reenact the entire Color Purple, word for word was astounding.
