Thomas Lee Terrell Sr.

On September 23, 2021, Tommy Terrell Sr. passed peacefully from this life. In his healthy years he was known as a pillar of gentle strength among family and friends alike. An avid outdoorsman and elite swimmer, he pursued his passions with inspiring discipline and deep humility. As a father and husband he was sensitive and nurturing beyond compare, and willing to make any sacrifice for those he loved without hesitation. He was warm, compassionate and intelligent, and while his best years were cut short by mental and physical illness, his mirthful blue eyes always sparkled in the presence of his daughter Casey, his son Tommy Jr., his grandson Lucas, and his ex-wife Carol, who never ceased caring for him when he could no longer care for himself. He joins his mother, Ellen Terrell, and his father, L. Thomas Terrell Jr, in their rest. Be at peace, sweet man, you were loved so very much. A visitation will be held at Woody Funeral Home-Parham, Saturday, October 23rd, from 1pm-3pm. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to Meals on Wheels: feedmore.org.
