Terence Sullivan
Announced on Facebook, former Renaissance drummer Tereance Sullivan passed away yesterday, surrounded by family and love. Sadly this leaves only Annie Haslam surviving from the "classic" lineup. My condolences to his family and friends.
"It is with greatest sadness to let you know that Terence "Terry" Sullivan our drummer from the classic Renaissance line up has passed away! He was surrounded by his family and a room full of love when he peacefully passed. He was a GREAT drummer, a warm human being, caring, funny and also an excellent songwriter. Please say prayers for Terry, his wife Christine, sons Lee and Kristian and grandson Ashton and all his family, friends and fans all over the world who will miss him."
We were only talking a few weeks ago reminiscing about our glory days and how far we had come in four years to end up at Carnegie Hall with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra and after that the Royal Albert Hall with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Royal Chorale Society. Every dream anyone could wish for we had, and not forgetting the incomparable music we were blessed to create. It was a lovely conversation I will hold inside forever.
This is my very favourite photo of Terry he is running through Forever Changing, the song he wrote with Betty Thatcher for his beloved Father. You can see the Joy and Love shining through his face...
Always in my Heart Terry
Annie Haslam"
