Terry Alan Martin

Andover, Ohio - Terry Alan Martin, age 74, died peacefully at home on Sunday, July 18, 2021, after a two-year battle with pancreatic cancer, participating in a clinical trial to hopefully help others. He was born on January 27, 1947, in Ashtabula, Ohio, a son of Ruth Eileen (Osborne) and Alan Clare Martin. Terry was a 1965 graduate of Pymatuning Valley High School. On July 18, 1965, he married his high school sweetheart, Vicki Joan Dieterle, and died on their fifty-sixth wedding anniversary. He worked for the former Rockwell International of Ashtabula for thirteen years, then he opened and operated Martin Insurance Agency of Andover for many years.
Terry enjoyed hunting and fishing but riding his Honda Gold Wing across the United States (including Alaska) and Canada was by far his favorite pastime. He rode with his wife for over fifty years, traveling far and wide. Terry would spend the winter months in Edinburg, Texas, and several years he traveled the coastline of Costa Rica.
He is preceded in death by his parents. Survivors include his wife Vicki of Andover; his son, Alan J. Martin of Andover, Ohio; his daughter, Annette L. (George Spicka) Martin of Phoenix, Arizona; granddaughter, Brooke E. Martin of Edinboro, Pennsylvania; two sisters, Holly Martin of Meadville, Pennsylvania and Penny Martin of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and a brother, Timothy (Brenda) Martin of Acworth, Georgia.
