David Lee Terhune, age 53, of Dover, Delaware formerly of Milford, DE and Greensboro, MD lost his final battle against the odds passing away peacefully at home on Wednesday, September 25, 2024.
David worked in several industries, from factory to retail, but his favorite was as a security guard, protecting and serving at several hotels and later at Midway Slots in Harrington, DE. No matter what he did, he gave it his all despite many health struggles.
He is survived by his wife of 28 years, Jennifer Lynn Terhune (formerly Jennifer Lynn Patterson) of Dover, DE, his father, Harold William Terhune, Jr. of Greensboro, MD, his brothers: Billy (Harold W. Terhune, III), of Smyrna, DE and Jonathan S. Terhune of Denton, MD, his nephews: Will (Harold W. Terhune, IV), Matthew S. Terhune and Alexander M. Terhune of Smyrna, DE , and niece Abry M. Terhune of Greensboro, MD.
He will be missed for his unwavering ability to always bring levity to any situation, his delicious BBQ, homemade pies, cookies and holiday meals, his wonderful sense of humor, loyalty and honesty, love for animals, his creative art and painting, and debating and lecturing history and other random knowledge he soaked up like a sponge.
May he always ride free on the winds and in peace.
