Terry Julian's Obituary
Terry Wayne Julian, son of Jerry Alva and Patsy Evelena Julian was born March 17, 1957 in Springfield, Missouri. He departed this life, June 16, 2012 at the age of fifty-five years, two months and thirty days.
Born and raised in the Seymour area, Terry enjoyed hunting, fishing, racing, horseback riding, camping and riding his four-wheeler. He was at home in the woods, and loved to spend time in God’s creation. He enjoyed working with his hands and worked on cabinetry through the years. In 1975, Terry joined the United States Air Force and faithfully served his country at the end of the Vietnam Conflict. After his service, Terry returned to the Ozarks and was blessed with two sons and a daughter.
Terry accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior early in his life and was a member of the Baptist faith. He found peace as he walked the hills, and spent time in the outdoors. Determined, hardworking and strong-willed, Terry taught his children the value of finishing what you start and being there for those you care about.
He was preceded in death by his parents, his maternal grandparents Lawrence and Alta Duckworth and paternal grandparents Jack and Bertha Julian.
Terry leaves behind his sons Gary Julian and wife Karie of Ozark, Missouri and Cody Julian and wife Courtney of Seymour, Missouri; his daughter Kaley Julian of Seymour, Missouri; his grandchildren Bailey, Brody and Madison Julian; and his sister Jerene Harris and husband Albert of Nixa, Missouri as well as several nephews, nieces and a host of other family and friends.
A loving father, grandpa, brother, uncle, and a caring neighbor and friend, Terry Wayne Julian leaves behind a legacy of service, faith and honor. We celebrate his life and accomplishments and will treasure the memories he made for all who knew and loved him.
