October 17, 2026:  We have just received the sad news, from his daughter Jennifer Bauldry, of the passing of classmate Terry Bauldry, who died on July 8.

After leaving Seaholm, he worked for the Hoover Company in the Akron, OH area for 37 years, beginning with an apprenticeship, and ultimately leading to his becoming a master tool and die maker.

Terry had a great love for working with metal and wood.  His penchant for tinkering held him in good stead when he decided to become (in Jennifer’s words) a “hobby farmer”, acquiring a 46.5 acre farm in Navarre, OH.  He once sardonically quipped that “going into farming was the dumbest thing that [he] ever did” (but, to this writer, it nevertheless seems to have brought him plenty of rewards).  

Terry loved restoring vintage cars, reading history, and watching old TV series, especially Perry Mason and MASH – he was definitely a child of his times. 

Gentle and stalwart of spirit, Terry had a great zest for enjoying many facets of life.  Through the years, he kept up with a number of his Seaholm friends. 

Thanks go to Jennifer Bauldry for providing the information on her dad.
