IN LOVING MEMORY OF TERRY WILSON 🤍
It is with great sadness that the Wynyard Football Club acknowledges the passing of Terry Desmond Wilson, who passed away peacefully on 5 October 2026, aged 75.
Terry was a loving husband to Shelley, father to Darryn and Jarrad, and a much-loved father-in-law, grandfather and great-grandfather.
After arriving in Wynyard from Stanley around 1975, Terry quickly fell in love with the Wynyard Football Club. In 1977, alongside his lifelong friend Paul McCormick, he joined the Club’s committee, beginning 25 years of dedicated service across numerous roles. His outstanding contribution was recognised with Life Membership, an honour he treasured dearly.
Terry played a significant role in two major club renovations, including the construction of the upstairs viewing room and the extensive redevelopment of the clubrooms in 2018. He dedicated countless hours to securing State Government grants and managing these projects, helping shape the facilities our Cats community enjoys today.
Above all, Terry cherished the people and memories made at the Cattery. He loved watching his grandson Adam play and, more recently, sharing a b**r together on Thursday nights. The lifelong friendships he formed through the Club meant the world to him, with some spanning more than 50 years.
Terry will be remembered for his infectious smile, his love of a b**r and a chat, and his genuine interest in everyone who walked through the Club’s doors. He always made time for others and ensured everyone felt welcome.
Terry was more than a Life Member; he was a valued friend and a special part of the Wynyard Football Club family. His presence will be deeply missed.
On behalf of the Wynyard Football Club, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Shelley and the entire Wilson family.
Thank you, Todd Spinks for these words 💙
