Terry passed away peacefully on March 27th at Good Samaritan Hospital surrounded by family.
He was born September 14th 1956 in Tacoma, WA to Samuel and Evelyn Ghorley. He grew up in Puyallup, WA with his 3 brothers Steve, Ken, and Ron where he attended Rogers Highschool. After Highschool he went on to attend Job Corp. He worked at St. Regus and also many years with the City of Tacoma in Refuse. Terry was a collector of things. He loved thrifting, garage sales, and junking. He was always on the look out for oddities and unique things. Terrys faith was important to him. He was raised by Southern Baptists and attended Mountain View Baptist for a number of years. He would tell anyone willing to listen his testimony and about Jesus. Terry was a free spirit. He had a great sense of humor and those closest to him will surely miss laughing with him.
Terry was predeceased by his parents Samuel and Evelyn as well as his brother Steve. He is survived by his partner of 30 years Reina Molnar. He is also survived by his 3 children Dana, Brittney, and Trenton as well as 8 Grandchildren. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
