Terry Allen Loe, age 76, of Tower and formerly of Aurora and Slayton, MN died Saturday, September 22, 2012, in his home on Lake Vermilion following a courageous 7-year battle with cancer.

Terry worked as a Railroad Supervisor for the Erie Mining Co. (LTV), retiring after 40 years of service. He also owned and operated his own excavation business. Terry enjoyed hunting, fishing, and camping. He was a "jack of all trades" and a "Mr. fix-it".
