Alan Harold Terry was born June 5, 1964 to Jack and Jeanne Terry. Alan has valiantly battled cancer for the past 5 years, he passed away in the comfort of his home surrounded by his loved ones on March 4, 2022. He was the middle of five children with two older brothers, Russ & Keith and two younger sisters, Cindy & Debbie. He grew up in South Weber, Utah and at 14 moved to Stone, Idaho. He loved hard work and helping others.
He married his college sweetheart Shanna, May 20, 1983. Alan graduated from WTI in diesel mechanics and they moved to West Point, Utah where Zjani & Chandler were born. Eventually they planted their roots in Snowville and grew their family to four with the addition of Austin and Aubrey. While in Snowville they started the Ranch House Diner and eventually Alan bought his dad’s farm, he loved his parents so much. Alan’s favorite part of being a dad was his long talks with his kids and 16 grandkids. Big Al was a friend and counselor to many.
