Terry especially enjoyed the summertime when he could be outside doing yard work on his Grasshopper lawn mower. He enjoyed spending time at The Spot with his friends and having “just one more”. He was an avid NASCAR racing fan with Jimmy Johnson being his favorite driver. Terry’s knowledge of woodworking and his ability to “fix anything” will be greatly missed by his wife, family members and friends.

Those left to cherish Terry’s memories are his wife, Bev; son, Tracy; parents, Bill and Marilyn Hatcher and sister, Becky. In death, Terry rejoins his grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, brother-in-law, and many friends.

The family wishes to thank Dr. Prow and her staff from the Oncology Department at McFarland Clinic in Marshalltown and Ames. Also a big thank you to Iowa River Hospice Home Care and the Iowa River Hospice house for their excellent care and personal attention they always gave Terry and gave to the family. Lastly, but will never be forgotten, all the support given by brothers, sister-in-laws, neighbors, and friends. So many people helped, not only Terry, but also helped his family make his journey just a bit easier. God bless you all.
