Building For Our Descendants

When we build, let us think that we build forever. Let it not be for present delight nor for present use alone. Let it be such work as our descendants will thank us for; and let us think, as we lay stone on stone, that a time is to come when those stones will be held sacred because our hands have touched them, and that men will say, as they look upon the labor and wrought substance of them, "See! This our father did for us."  - John Ruskin

This passage was found among Terry's father's (Douglas Frodsham) belongings. As we look back on the year since Terry's passing, these words seem particularly poignant.

Archive News Interview

Terry spent a lot of time working with the media, especially in the earliest days of Valley Emergency Communications Center (VECC.)  In this interview with Utah TV and radio personality Tom Bock on a late 80's news program called "Weekend Magazine," Terry explains the purpose of the new center and helps educate the public on the basics of the still relatively new 9-1-1 emergency contact number.
