Terry Carroll Obituary

Terry Carroll

1949-2023

Terry Lee Carroll, 74, of Northwood, Ohio, passed away Saturday, October 21, 2023, and now has gone home to be with his soulmate, Gloria J. Carroll. Terry was born May 8, 1949, in Toledo, Ohio, to Odene and Patricia (Jones) Carroll. Terry was a dedicated Toledo Jeep Millwright for 56 years and served in the Army after high school. Terry was an entrepreneur, owning many family businesses throughout his life time. His devotion to discipline, paired with his knowledge and skill in boxing, enabled him to open one of Toledo's top Tae Kwon Do academies. It was there where he found great joy teaching the skills and disciplines of martial arts to many young boys and girls.

He enjoyed watching sports, movies, and was brilliant with TV trivia game shows. Terry was also known to be quite the chef. With no formal culinary training, he would always manage to cook up a delightful meal. He enjoyed hosting larger gatherings where he could ensure mouths were well fed and satisfied.

As Terry grew older, he discovered a love and passion for motorcycles. It was on a motorcycle where he often found freedom and peace from the demands of life. However, when not cruising the open roads, you could often find him spending time with his family.

He is survived by his children, Shannon (Craig) Dippman, Tara (Brandon) Gordon, Jason (Samantha) Carroll; grandchildren, Taylor (Logan) Hough, Bryce, Cameron, Camila, Lucas, and Kaden; great-grandchildren, Kinsley, Everlee, Noelle, and Beckett; siblings, Odene Jr., Carroll, Sandra (Thomas) Miller, Larry (Linda) Carroll, Michele (Dave) Mauder; and his current wife, Jocelyn and daughter Mia. He was preceded in death by his parents, Odene Carroll, Patricia Carroll; sister in law, Kathy Carroll; his twin baby brother; and grandson, Tyler Dippman.

The family will receive friends and loved ones at the Eggleston Meinert & Pavley Funeral Home, Millbury, 1111 Woodville Road (east of I-280) Thursday, October 26, 2023, from 2:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Funeral services will be held at the funeral home on Friday, October 27, 2023, at 11:00 a.m. Interment: Lake Township Cemetery.

I am so sorry for the family´s loss. Mr. Carroll was a good person. He helped me tremendously. The lessons he taught me as a student I have carried with me every day. He has had that kind of impact on many.

Terry Carroll was a very important and influential part of my teenage years. I attended his Tae Kwon Do Karate Club in Northwood OH for many years. As I rose through the ranks up to black belt / instructor, he always pushed me to improve myself and was like a father figure to me. I looked up in awe to him. More than just a business relationship, he actually cared about his students and their development. I know there are many other young men and women whose lives he touched through karate - he taught us all hard work and discipline, and wouldn't accept mediocrity. I carry those lessons with me to this day, and am better for having known him. My condolences to Jason, Shannon, Tara, and the rest of the Carroll family.
