Lambert's Terry


I noticed Terry's name at the end of the credits as an"in memory of"....
Does anyone know if he took his own life as a result of losing his beloved lions??
He talked so much about Lambert being the reason that he could rise out of his post-accident depression that I wondered how he would cope with his absence and then seeing his name at the end, well, it made me wonder-

That's really interesting..... Makes me wonder whether his car was on the tracks courting suicide......
Thanks for posting the article-

I doubt it, if his son and another person were in the truck with him.

I'm willing to bet that, once the lions were gone, he got over them pretty quickly.

Oh my god, he was only 56!?! He looked like he was closing in on 80.

Thanks so much for your posting. I'm glad to know that Terry was in good spirits despite being separated from his lions and that his death wasn't self-inflicted out of despair.

I just saw the DVD. This was such an informative movie about the craziness of exotic animal ownership and sales! Especially as I live in Dayton, OH and after the recent events in Zanesville, OH. Talk about close to home! If you'd like to learn more about Terry and the rest of the cast check out the extras on the DVD. Terry's death is addressed in detail.
