In Loving Memory

Terry Copeland
April 3, 1947 — October 3, 2026
Terry Copeland, a beloved mother, grandmother, and cherished friend, peacefully passed away in her sleep on October 3rd, 2026, at the age of 79. Born on April 3rd, 1947, to Mary and Michael Copeland, she was a beacon of love and kindness throughout her life.
Terry's early life was marked by a deep commitment to family and community. She married David Castor at the age of 26, and together they welcomed four wonderful children: Lindsay Lucas, Darcie Copeland, Jason Copeland, and Eric Copeland. Although their marriage ended after 30 years, they remained united in their dedication to their children.
A woman of many passions, Terry found immense joy in her garden. Her love for growing vegetables was not just a hobby but a testament to her nurturing spirit and her respect for nature's simple gifts. Her garden was a sanctuary where she found peace, and she shared its bounty generously with friends and neighbors.
Terry's legacy lives on through her two cherished grandchildren, Cayden Lucas and Mason Terriberry. Though she did not have great-grandchildren, her familial bonds extended deeply into the lives she touched. Her children and grandchildren remember her as a pillar of strength and a source of unwavering support.
Terry was predeceased by her loving parents, Mary and Michael Copeland, and her dear husband, Charlie Copeland. Her family finds comfort in the knowledge that she is now reunited with them, embraced in eternal peace.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to be made in Terry's memory to local community gardens or organizations that support sustainable agriculture, reflecting her lifelong passion for nurturing growth and life.
Terry Copeland's warmth, wisdom, and gentle spirit will be dearly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her memory will forever be a blessing to those she leaves behind.
