Terrance D. King

February 15, 1939 — August 25, 2020

Greece- Terrance D. King, 81, passed away on Tuesday, August 25, 2020 with his loving wife by his side.

Terry was born in Rochester, NY on February 15, 1939 to the late Walter and Sally King. On November 23, 1974 Terry married the love of his life, Betty. They were married for 45 years and together they raised seven children. Terry served his country honorably in the United States Army Reserves for 8 years, and he was a loyal Kodak Employee until his retirement in 1993 with 25 years of service as a Tool and Die Maker. He continued to work at various companies after his retirement. He will be remembered for his love of working with his hands, and household projects and repairs. He had every tool imaginable and could fix anything. He loved taking photos, and it was important to him to capture every moment. He was always talking on the phone to loved ones, and he enjoyed hosting backyard get-togethers with his family and friends. His passion in life was his family.

One of things Terry enjoyed most was his time spent with his Monroe High School classmates, still after 63 years, and his get-togethers with his Kodak buddies. He had a fun, goofy side and will always be known for his silly sayings. Terry also loved traveling the country, and always had a story to tell about his experiences with the people he visited and the places he's been.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Betty, his five children with his first wife Linda Flad: John King, Terry (Teresa Kirkpatrick) King, Dan (Ellen) King, Ron (Shannon Anderson) King, David (Adrienne) King, and his two children with Betty: Kristin (Dan) Belknap, and Aaron (Renee Stewart) King, his grandchildren, Jayni, Neil, Laylin, Nicole, Mya, Lucinda, Adrian, Keenan, Miranda, Christian, Dylan, Xavier, Jasmine, Jaidah, Cade, Katriana, Nathaniel, Jaden, and Ava, his great-grandchildren, McKenzie, Kallie, Evan, and Leah, his siblings, Carol Spangenberg, Bob King, and Charlie (Patricia) King, and a host of nieces and nephews.
