CLIFF, Terry

The Board, Management and Staff of YMCA Geelong, Y Men's and Y's Menettes Clubs extend our deepest sympathy to Terry's family and friends on his passing.

Terry contributed a lifetime of leadership and friendship to the Y and generations of young people.

Terry dedicated three decades of service to YMCA Geelong as Executive Director, after retiring Terry continued his contribution as a volunteer through the many fundraising activities of the Y Service Club of Geelong.

Terry was awarded Life Member, Hall of Fame Honour and Program Pioneer of YMCA Australia, recognised for his work for the Aussie Slammers basketball pathway program. He also served as a Board Member of YMCA Geelong and as President of the Y Service Club of Geelong.

Terry was focused, spirited and determined. If there was a task that needed to be completed, he would see to it. Never afraid to ask a business for support or donations, he was a master at making a deal or two.

Terry's passing will be felt most deeply by his wife Mary, and children Matthew, Andrew, Michael, Alex and Liz, and their families and the ripples of his impact and friendship will extend across the YMCA and the Geelong and Torquay communities.

A life of service will be forever remembered.
