Terry Styers Obituary

Terry Ray "Pa" Styers, 84, passed away on November 7, 2025, at his home in Tacoma, WA. Born February 7, 1941, in Newcastle, PA, Terry lived his life on his own terms, welcoming all with his stories and generosity. He lived as Bob Dylan quoted "All I can do is be me, whoever that is". Very proud of being a homeowner and retiree of the Tacoma News Tribune. He left a mark with all that crossed his path no matter where they were in life. Terry loved to shoot a game of pool but most of all he loved to just sit down and talk while sharing his endless stories of life. Terry is preceded in life by his wife, Linda. He is survived by his children, Chuck (Debra), Tracy, Jay and 6 beloved grandchildren. For information regarding his Celebration of Life please RSVP to [email protected].
