Terry grew up in Nebraska where he graduated high school and then received his Bachelor of Science in Education Degree from Midland College, Fremont, Nebraska. He met Connie Behrens and they were married December 26, 1966.
Terry had a passion for sports, leading him into a career as a teacher and most importantly a coach! He taught and coached for over a decade in Milford and Bloomfield, NE before purchasing Plains Motel in Kimball, NE. When the family relocated to Colorado he worked in Steamboat for the airline industry and then for Safeway before officially retiring.
In his free time, Terry found great joy in golfing and skiing, and he especially cherished watching his children and grandchildren compete in their sporting events. He and Connie shared a love for travel, creating countless memories together—especially on cruises, which held a special place in their hearts. Above all, Terry’s life was grounded in his deep love for his family and his unwavering faith in the Lord.
Terry is survived by his wife, Connie Lippold; his daughter Angela Coddington (Graham); and his son Michael Lippold (Jenny); his brother James Lippold (Vicki); his grandchild Campbell Coddington, his grandchild Claire Coddington, his grandchild Garrett Lippold, his grandchild Tanner Lippold and his grandchild Madison Lippold.
A celebration of life for Terry will be held Monday, September 29, 2025 at 10:30 AM at Olinger Andrews Caldwell Gibson Chapel, 407 Jerry Street, Castle Rock, Colorado 80104, followed by a lite reception.
