RENTON – Terence Garvin has only been in Seattle for six months, but the Seahawks linebacker already likes his new city so much he’s trying to get his mother to move here.
Garvin and his mother, Pat, have always been close. But their bond has intensified ever since Garvin’s father, Terry, died unexpectedly in March 2014, right before Garvin’s second season with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
“He died in his sleep. I was sad. It was tough, but I feel like God has a plan, so he kinda got me through the tough times, and I feel like that’s another reason I play as hard as I play,” Garvin says.
