Obituary For Terry Ridley, Jr.

Terry Andrew Ridley, Jr., a loving son, father, brother, partner, and friend, passed away leaving behind a legacy of kindness, laughter, and strength.

He was born to his father, Terry Andrew Ridley, Sr. and his mother, Stella Nissley Ridley.

Terry was a proud and loving father to his daughter, Kateline Ridley and stepdaughter, Ariel Navarro. His love for his family was deep, and he cherished the time he spent with them.

He is also survived by his brothers, Jessie Ridley, Elvis Ridley and Travis Nissley and his sisters, Treasa Rivera, Rae Ann Sonon and Emma Kochenferfer.

Terry shared a special and meaningful bond with the love of his life, Dava Fickinger, who stood by his side with love and devotion.

He was also deeply cared for by his devoted caregiver, Calvett (Sharrod) Brown, whose support meant so much to him. He will be dearly missed by his close friends, Chris K., Steve Etnoyer and Ericka Vandermark, along with many others whose lives he touched.

Before becoming disabled, Terry was known for his strong work ethic. He took pride in every job he did, from detailing cars, working as a security guard and delivering auto parts.

Terry had a fun-loving spirit and a personality that could light up any room. He loved watching Sanford and Son and Three's Company, enjoyed country music, motorcycles and admired beautiful cars.

He also loved Sunshine's cooking. He shared a special bond with his beloved cat, MooMoo.

Terry was known for his generous heart-he would give the shirt off his back to anyone in need. He loved to laugh, joke, and bring smiles to those around him. His memory will live on through the love he gave and the lives he touched.

Send flowers to the service of Terry Ridley, Jr.
