Terry Tipton Obituary

This amazing man passed away on January 31, 2016, after a short battle with pancreatic cancer at the age of 57. A longtime resident of Eugene, those who knew Terry knew the many lives he touched with his beautiful smile and loving nature.

Terry was born in Vancouver, Washington on April 27, 1958. The son of Oron and Loretta Inlow, he was the eldest brother to Tom Inlow and Kim Inlow. Terry was married to Tami Netz-Plank in 1978. They had two beautiful children, Heidi Tipton of Portland and Oron Tipton of Eugene.

To remember Terry is to hear a big, deep laugh that was as genuine as it was rich. To know Terry was to know he would lend a hand to any project, lend an ear to anyone in need and tell a story to all. And we loved hearing his stories late into the evening, surrounding a campfire, enjoying the smoke.
