Terrence "Terry" Wolfe

A lifetime of service and integrity are the two best descriptors of Terrence ""Terry"" Wolfe, who left this world on July 24, 2021 to enter the gates into eternity with our Lord God. He is survived by his wife, Debbra, of 41 years, two sons Daniel (wife Evelyn) and Travis, two grandchildren, Dakota and Bodhi. He is also survived by his mother-in-law, Jeanny, his parents Ed and Sally Wolfe, two sisters and multiple aunts and uncles, nieces and nephews. Although still young, Terry had a full life which began with a strong desire to ""build things"" instilled by his maternal Gramp who encouraged him to become an Engineer. He graduated from Virginia Military Institute (VMI) with a degree in Civil Engineering. It was at VMI where he honed his most prominent personality traits—that of honor, service and integrity. He entered the US Army as a Combat Engineer where he served his country with honor for 22 years. He then went on to form and build a successful Structural Engineering firm where he was finally able to fulfil his dream to ""build things"". Terry served his clients with single minded integrity in every job he designed making sure he was always available to his clients when they needed him. The service and product Terry provided to his clients was always created with his best efforts because that is who Terry Wolfe was. Outside of work, Terry began a journey early on to become ""his best self"" when he realized he needed more than Earthly fulfillment. He also wanted to become the best husband and father that he could be. Debbra and Terry began this search at local churches. From Florida, to Germany, to Kentucky and Texas, the search bore fruit in the deep, abiding relationship that Terry developed with our God. That love of God gave birth to his strong desire to save his fellow mankind. From military care packages and mentorships, to community disaster relief, to home church service, and foreign mission trips, Terry's serving heart never wavered. He loved his family (particularly his grandchildren) the most and grieves for the fallen world they are living in. Terry's life has been a gift to the world and when he entered Heaven, most likely God said to him ""well done, good and faithful servant.""
