In loving memory of Terry Madison Wickham, of Westtown, New York, who passed away peacefully on May 4, 2024, at 73 years old. Terry was born on May 28, 1950, to Clarence and Marie Wickham in Minisink, New York. He grew up on his family's dairy farm before leaving for North Carolina to attend the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. He pursued a successful career with the Orange County Probation Department, retiring as a supervisor, and continued his dedication to public service by supporting the operations of local justice courts.

Terry is survived by his loving spouse, Susan LaForge Wickham; his daughter Allison Orozco and her husband Jose; his daughter Kristen Baginski and her husband Andrew; his cherished grandchildren, Grace and Ronan Baginski; his mother, Marie Wickham; his sister, Mary Constable; as well as several nieces and nephews. He is predeceased by his father, Clarence Wickham; his brother, Donny Wickham; his brother-in-law Robert Constable, and his nephew, Michael Constable.

Known for his unwavering faith, sense of humor, quick wit, love of classic cars, history, and affinity for music, Terry left a lasting impact on those he met. He had a special knack for remembering every song and every car model.

A Memorial Visitation and Service to celebrate Terry's life will be held on Saturday, May 11th from 10am – 12pm at Denton Presbyterian Church in New Hampton, New York, with a Service beginning at 12pm with Pastor Dorinda Violante officiating.

In the words of Bob Dylan:

"Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me

I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm goin' to

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me

In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you."
