Terry Wilson was born in Roseburg,
Oregon then moved to Washington State
in 1980.
Terry has been coming to the Beacon
for 14 years. He says Tai Chi was what
caught his interest when he first started
coming in but eventually Terry would
become a dedicated volunteer.
Enjoying the many activities and
delicious lunches are what Terry says he
likes about Beacon the most. Terry
enjoys all manner of sports and use to
play basketball in his youth.
With a vast knowledge of the Beacon
center and his helpful nature, Terry
ensures that the Beacon runs smoothly
and that everyone here is happy. With his
camera, Terry has captured some of the
greatest moments here at the Beacon
throughout the years.
We are fortunate to have Terry Wilson as a Beacon member.
“Women are leaders everywhere
you look -- from the CEO who runs
a Fortune 500 company to the
housewife who raises her children
and heads her household. Our
country was built by strong women
and we will continue to break down
walls and defy stereotypes.”
– Nancy Pelosi
