LeRoy ~ Terry P. "Tuba" McQuillen, age 62, formerly of Fredonia and Rutland, VT, passed away peacefully at home early Wednesday morning (July 18, 2018).
Terry was a graduate of Notre Dame High School in Batavia and his work eventually took him away to Fredonia and Rutland, VT, before returning back to his home town. He had a deep love for his family and enjoyed playing cards, golf and going to the racetrack. He was also an avid NY Yankees fan. Over the last 3 years as Tuba bravely battled cancer , he never once lost his wickedly funny sense of humor , his generous spirit to others, or his positive outlook on life.

He was predeceased by his father, Robert in 1996.
