He plans to have his second book published before he reaches seventy-eight whether he lives that long or not. The book is already completed. Terrell is a former high school and college athlete who also played a year of professional baseball prior to serving as an officer in the US Marine Corps in the late 1950’s. He and his wife Phyllis met and married at Georgetown College in Kentucky fifty-six years ago, and the past twelve years have lived in his hometown of Corbin, Kentucky.   Authorhouse Publishing of Bloomington, Indiana is publishing Terrell’s first book which is titled, “Have We Lost Our Common Sense?” He is concerned the “common sense” approach leaders of government and industry used to take in dealing with life’s challenges has been replaced by greed, selfishness, and lack of concern for others. He offers his specific life experiences in addressing the ways we have thrown away our core values for the quick dollar and immediate gratification.   Bob has been inducted in the Athletic Hall of Fame of Corbin High School and Georgetown College. He also served as President of the Student Body at Georgetown College and for ten years on the Georgetown College Foundation Board. Terrell was an Executive of Ford Motor Company thirty years in Ohio, Texas, and Michigan. He later served ten years as President of Fred Jones Enterprises in Oklahoma.    As he says with a Kentucky smile,    “I have been around the horn. I understand what Clint Eastwood was experiencing in the “Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.” I have just about seen it all. My wife, children, and their families have been the good and the pretty of my life.” Terrell had an experience in the bull ring in Spain at age 37 as he survived ten minutes weaving and dodging a Spanish Bull.   He just missed by inches getting shot in the face in his yard in Bloomfield Township, Michigan in the early 1980’s, and he helped Ford in the investigation and prosecution of a major counterfeit group in a Federal Suit in the 1975-1980 period.   He and the Chairman of AFG Industries, Raymond “Dee” Hubbard worked out an agreement written on the back of a napkin in the late 1980’s at dinner at the Airport Marriott that resulted in Hubbard’s company purchasing $75 million in glass over a two year period from Ford Motor Company. That meeting also initiated negotiations in which AFG purchased Ford’s Glass Plant in Scarborough, Canada for an estimated $125 million. He and Hubbard were both from small town America in Kentucky and Kansas, enjoyed to play basketball, tennis, and selling products and ideas. Terrell still calls Hubbard “one of the best “common sense” business leaders I have ever known.”     Terrell’s book includes some of his personal experiences with Hall of Fame football coaches Paul “Bear” Bryant, and his high school teammate and also Hall of Fame Football Coach Roy Kidd of Eastern Kentucky University. Terrell was a training officer at Parris Island Marine Corps Base and had the great Hall of Fame baseball star Roberto Clemente in one of his platoons. After their time in the Marine Corps they remained friends until Roberto’s tragic death December 31, 1972.   Bob Terrell’s first book at age seventy-seven is expected to be available for delivery……………………. may be ordered now for a price of at the following places.view less
