Terry Leach, 32, of Cheraw, SC, departed this life on Friday, October 18, 2025.
Born on April 20, 1993, in Cheraw, SC, Terry was the son of Rosette Leach and Terry Lee Issac. As a young child, he enjoyed hunting, fishing, riding dirt bikes, four-wheelers, and horses, and fixing things. These hobbies laid the foundation for his future, and it was no surprise when Terry ventured into entrepreneurship and opened T&T Repairs LLC, which he proudly owned alongside his brother, Terry Grant. He was a skilled carpenter and mechanic. If something was broken, Terry could fix it.
Terry attended Chesterfield County Schools and graduated from Cheraw High School in 2011. He was loved by so many for his infectious smile, contagious laugh, and sense of humor that could brighten any room. He was a devoted son, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend.
He leaves to cherish his precious memories: his mother, Rosette Leach; his father, Terry Lee Issac; his second mother, Christine Howard; sisters, Angela Grant, Ashley Howard, Daisy Frederick, Tomika Johnson, and Sherika Johnson; brothers, Terry Grant, Dariel Leak, Terrance Howard, Keydarius Johnson, and Markel Pressley; nieces and nephews, Rayan Gilbert, Mackenzie Gilbert, Milani Duffie, Tiffany Grant, De'Onte Grant, Alexander Baylor Jr., Quandasia Leak, Jaran Johnson, Shiena Wingate, and Kymir Gregg; his aunt, Ann Leach; and a host of other relatives and friends.
