Terry was born Jan. 11, 1927. He grew up in Chicago and prepared at Wayland Academy in Wisconsin. While in the Navy V-12 program at Princeton, he married Mary Baltzer at age 21.

The newlyweds moved to Tucson, Ariz., and Terry finished a degree in economics at the University of Arizona. Then they moved to California where, at Hughes Aircraft, Terry became a member of the project team for Surveyor 1, the first unmanned spacecraft to land on the moon.

About two decades later while on vacation, Terry and Mary stopped to visit their son, Terry Jr., then attending the University of Oregon. Within five weeks, the family moved to Salem, Ore., and Terry became a stockbroker. This provided much time for fishing, camping, and international travel with family.

After Mary died in 2008, Terry moved back to Tucson, where he died of heart failure Feb. 3, 2015, while recovering from hip surgery. Terry and Mary’s survivors are their sons, Terry Jr. and Keith; daughter Cathleen Miller; four grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.
