Terry was born the first of twin boys on March 26, 1965, in Tucumcari, New Mexico, to Jack and Anne Christian. His family later moved to Farmington, New Mexico, where Terry grew up and graduated from Farmington High School in 1983.
In 1985, Terry began his greatest journey—fatherhood—with the birth of his first son, followed shortly by a second. With his boys by his side, he met and married Jeanette on September 17, 1994, warmly welcoming her son into his life as his own. Together, they completed their blended family with the arrival of a daughter.
Terry later accepted an opportunity to relocate to Arizona, where he built a life over the past 26 years, growing both his career and his family. He spent much of his professional life in sales, where he thrived and excelled. His strong work ethic was rooted early on while working alongside his parents in their television store, where he developed a solid foundation that would guide him throughout his career.
Terry found joy in many things—golf, where he was especially proud of achieving a hole-in-one, attending concerts, playing video games, and spending time in the pool. Above all, he treasured time with his family, friends, and grandchildren, whom he considered one of life’s greatest blessings.
Terry is survived by his wife, Jeanette; his children, Brandon (Julie), Brett (Evelyn), Russell (Tristin), and Allison (Leon); his seven grandchildren; his twin brother, Kyle (Jennifer); his younger sister, Beverly; as well as many beloved nephews, nieces, uncles, aunts, cousins, and treasured friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Jack and Anne.
