Maysville, Missouri…Beloved husband of Susan Riley for over 36 years, Terry W Riley, 60, of Maysville, MO stepped into eternity from his home on Monday, January 22, 2024.

Terry was a local builder and realtor for many years. He used those giftings to teach his children many talents so, they could carry on the legacy of being a blessing.
Family was his biggest pride and joy. He recognized that his legacy was Godly children. His life motto that he lived by was, “As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” He did that faithfully all the days of his life. Terry was always very generous in everything he did. He cared deeply about people and would, and sometimes did, give them the clothes off of his back. He loved people and loved Christ, but one of his favorite things was bringing people to Christ.
He started a ministry, Seeds for Change and was later ordained as a minister through Joan Hunter Ministries.
