Hello Terry, Recently a friend recommended that I watch your "Pittance of Time" video on U-tube. I must admit, I'd never heard it before. What a wonderful, beautiful song. I was quite moved by it, enough so, that I recommend to all my friends to check it out. I've always had a profound respect for those who've fought and died for the cause of freedom, and very little tolerance for those who abuse that freedom and show little or no respect for them. I'm a new fan and I look forward to hearing more of your music.

Terry, i have just listned to "a pittance of time" and i cant stop listening to it, what a truly inspirational song, the words and manner in which you sing it makes my heart pump with pride for all the men who sacrificed all for everyone, as in the song 2 minutes is a pittance of time to remember our heroes all over the world, but too many people now dont care. THIS IS A TRULY AMAZING SONG, YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF YOURSELF. SCOTLAND LOVES YOU

The US has Lee Greenwood and "God Bless the USA" Canada has Terry Kelly and "A Pittance of Time". I first came across your song a few years ago and like so many other writters, I choke up and think about all our soldiers who give their last full measure to ensure the freedoms we have. Thank you for putting your words to music and sharing it with us all.

My son Cory Wallace and I met you at the VIPS retreat a couple of years ago. He also lost his eyes to bilateral retinoblastoma. His cancer wasn't genetic like yours, he has 13 Q Deletion Syndrome, that's were his cancer came from. I love your music, it gets me through those trying times when I'm taking care of Cory. I hope your doing great, because Cory is.

Your song "A Pittance of Time" is one of the most amazing songs ever heard. It was brought to my attention by my 10 year old son who said he had to have the lyrics and wanted to learn how to play this! Our son (Fiddle Kid on You Tube) is a Fiddle player and just loves this song ever since he saw it at school. I'm not surprised to hear where your from...it's a piece of heaven the Canadian east coast. Special people live in this special part of the world! We loved PEI when we lived there and Dartmouth is very familiar to us! Our son keeps saying he would love to meet you! I'm sure you know and have been told, heros are found everywhere. Thank you for being a hero in my sons eyes. You are helping to teach the true important things in this world! RESPECT, HONOR, COMPASSION and being grateful! Thank you Terry Kelly!

I love your song "A Pittance of Time" my husband plays it over and over and it touches me every time, I never tire of it. Our kids (pre-teens) know the song word for word and more importantly they understand the meaning of it and respect what it stands for. Wouldn't it be a perfect world if this song could be sent around the world and be heard by all and everyone got the message? What a shame it is not a perfect world, having said that Terry you have made a start so I guess its baby steps for now. GOD BLESS you all, THANK YOU and STAY SAFE...

I was redirected here from a search after reading a comment on YouTube about Billy Joel's "DownEaster' Alexa) with someone referring that it "reminded" them of Stan Rogers II "The Jeanie C" and I wanted to see if I could "hear it"...and i liked the "sea shanty" that I was able to hear...
Thanx

Like many previous, I received the "Pittance of Time" via email. As a Copper of 31 years and having been at many Dawn serices for Anzac Day and Remembrance Day this song just sums it all up for me. Having been in a situation where I had to remove an ignorant idiot on such a day and also having to restrain myself and also protect the idiot from others, this song definetly struck the right cord for me. Just sensational Terry and also having a Canada connection in our family in Calgary and through WWII, what can I say - Beautiful song

Dear Terry,
Like so many others...I received this via email..."Pittence of time" still makes me cry with a heart felt passion from deep down. Twenty five years I served in the Royal Australian Navy and still serve in the Reserves. Served in the Gulf 1991 and in East Timor 1999. What can I say....BRILLIANT... I have lost two good mates over the years through their service and remember them always....Grandfathers and Uncles from WW2 and their service and committment to Australia. I love your work and will always keep a keen ear out for more.
All my best

Dear Terry Kelly,

As the mother of one of Canada's fallen soldiers I would like to express my deepest gratitude for your gifts of time talent. Your song Pittance of Time was a message long over due. As a country we were becoming far too complacent with regard to our serving military personnel and our venterans.

My son WO Frank Robert Mellish was number 30 of the fallen in Afghanistan and sadly we are now at 108. I never thought for one moment that this would be taking place in our country during peace time.

My life has changed forever. I have lost my only son - my beautiful boy. Your song has however, brought food for thought for the young people of Canada as it has for the rest of us. Its' timely release was almost God inspired I feel. When we remember on November 11th each year your voice too echoes across this great nation as we bow our heads to give thanks for the sacrifice of lives given so selflessly so others may live better lives. We will also give thanks for your gifts and the selfless manner in which you share them with the world.

Finally, I want to say that I was present at the young Kevin Megeney funeral in Stellarton where you performed your song and I so wanted to thank you but I was so overwhelmed by my own grief and it was such an emotional time for everyone that I could scarcely find the courage to meet this brave soldiers family.

From the bottom of my broken heart, thank you Terry Kelly. I will always remember you!

A friend, whose son is currently serving in Iraq, e-mailed me your video link. The song summarizes well what both our countries owe to the veterans, and those currently serving, who so unselfishly place their lives in harm's way so we may walk in freedom and peace. I had the privilege to fly with the CAF 412 Sqdrn. on an exchange tour, and to later serve with a number of CAF personnel at NATO and who still remain my friends today. Thank you for your song and honor to remember those to whom owe so much to.

Blessings and God's continued favor over you.

i came upon your " pitance of time " in an email .i think its wonderful and so humbling , and many lessons are in there about respect, not many pieces of music can draw me to tears , but yours does , it shows the lack of respect that runs all the way through society now .............

Dear Sir,
To start with I am sorry for my spelling as I do not spell well at all.
I have heard and seen you video "A Pittance of Time" and I wanted to thank you for it. I have played it many time over the past two or three years and when I do, it always reminds me of WHY I am still a soldier today.
I wish with all my heart that I was better with words so that I could tell how the song has touched me and how much you have given this old soldier.
I will leave you with this. "Thank you" as you have helped this old soldier keep on keeping on......

Terry.
there may have been times when you thought "who would listen to this". This is brilliant to say the least. I do a lot of travelling and always try to be at a place of rememberence on that special day. I play your recording when ever I think of it . I think it should be part of international rememberence. Great work mate ,great work. I will be saving this one. this doesnt need a day, it holds its own.

What a blessing, what a commemeration of all those who have given of themselves, some their all, in defence of freedom. Particularly today as we see the dark cloud of hate decending on the earth again, we need to be thankful.
Thank you for your fine work.

Hi Terry,
It was good to see you on Breakfast Television the other day. I remember when you played at the SeaBreaze Tavern in Eastern Passage. Those were the days. I love the story behind "A Pittance of Time". I am going to send it to all my friends for them to read.

Hello Terry
I've always been a fan of Pittance of Time since it was released and is an inspiration to all, especially those who serve. I am now serving in Afghanistan working in a Multi National HQ and have showed this video to all my co-workers and the response is overwhelming. I wish I had packed the CD to come over with, but will pack it up for when I come back from tour. I would love to book you for over here, but will have to wait until I get home and hopefully link up with you around the Maritimes.
Take Care, and thanks for the support through the years.

G'day Terry
Firstly I want to congratulate you on your song A Pittance of Time. A close friend sent me a copy just after Rememberance Day. Although I am not a veteran, I am an associate member of the Vietnam Veterans Motorcycle Club - South Australian Chapter. Each February we conduct a memorial motorcyle run and visit the graves of the brothers who have past. As the club unofficial photographer I took a swag of photograps of the 2008 run. Although without your permission (sorry) I put your song to a slide show these photographs. I presented this to the vets at a recent meeting. I must tell you there was more than one vet with a tear in his eyes. I am the grandson of a WW1 veteran of the Somme, the son of a WW2 veteran and the Uncle of nephews who seen service in the Middle East and Timor. So once again I thank you for showing the respect all our veterans from all conflicts deserve.
Cheers Rob

Terry,
Recently was sent your Video (Pittance) - what an inspiring work. Being a Vietnam Era vet, it has very special meaning to me. It has also inspired me to pick up my guitar and start playing again after several decades - my first quest; 'A Pittance of Time'. Thank you and God Bless.
