Obituary

Larry Wood Terrell
March 12, 1941 - November 06, 2019



Larry Wood Terrell, 78, passed away at his home in Pine on November 6, 2019. He was born March 12, 1941 in Kokomo, MS to William and Lendorse Terrell. Larry retired from Gaylord Container Corporation after 35 years of service. He was a member of Pine First Baptist Church and resided in the Pine community for most of his life. He was a member of the Pine Masonic Lodge and the Washington Parish Shriners. He was also co-owner of Terrell’s lawnmower. Larry never failed to help someone in need, he worked hard, loved to joke and make people laugh, loved fishing, growing muscadines, working on tractors, and first and foremost he loved his family.

He is survived by his wife of 60 years, Edna Jean Jones Terrell; his son Larry Dewayne (Faith) Terrell of Pine, LA; his daughters Cheryl (Joe) Mitchell of Poplarville, MS, Lisa (Pat) Posey of Carthage, MS, Lana (Gary) Barker of Houston, TX, Melissa (Gene) Magee of Denham Springs, LA; his siblings Billie Sue Spears, Tommy Terrell, Mary Lou (Daniel) Gill, Gloria (Glenn) Haley, Charlotte (Michael) Williams, Patsy (Harold) Ritchie, Brenda (Eugene) Martin; an uncle Holcomb Pittman of Pascagoula, MS; special friends Bruce Haines and Charlie Corkern; 14 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren and one on the way.

He was preceded in death by his parents, William and Lendorse Pittman Terrell; brothers William Wayne and Clyde Terrell; brother-in-law Willie Jay Spears; sisters-in-law Jeannie and Alice Terrell.

Special thanks to Home Instead for their faithful service, Bruce Haines who became more family than caregiver and his/our guardian angel; Whitney Terrell, whom we appreciate the love, support and sacrifices she has made to be there for our family.
