OBITUARIES
Reverend Terry L . Martin
On the Feast of Pentecost , Sunday , June 5 , 2022 , The Reverend Terry L . Martin passed away suddenly and unexpectedly but very peacefully in his sleep at his home in Hammonton , N . J .
Terry spent his life in the service of his family and his church in the Episcopal priesthood . He graduated from the Anglo-Catholic Episcopal seminary of Nashota House in Wisconsin and was very proud to be “ a son of the House .” Consequently , his skill at conducting the Episcopal liturgy was absolute meticulous perfection , and proper , carefully executed liturgy was his passion . He was 68 years old .
He also loved books and would frequently say “ I ’ m a reader !” He exulted in a good story in a movie or a book . He relished writing things himself and telling his own stories . His latest hobby was gardening , and he turned his backyard into a mini farm of vegetables and flowers . He will be missed by his church , his children , grandchildren and former parishioners , but most of all by his closest companion and only confidante , his wife Cherie .
He leaves behind his wife , Cherie Calletta Martin ; daughters , Michelle Martin Juri ( Matthew ) and Chrissy Martin Barba ( Chris ); and sons , Paul and Kenneth Martin . Also surviving him are his grandchildren , Jordan ( Auri ), Kailey , Trevor , Tanner , Lily , James , Jackson and Aidan and one great-granddaughter , Brooklyn .
May he rest in peace and rise in eternal glory on this Day of Pentecost , the birthday of the church and Terry ’ s own birthday in his new life of the hereafter .
