Terry Wilde Memorial Fund

In the early morning hours of Sunday August 7th, Terry Wilde lost a long and exceptionally brave battle with esophageal cancer, leaving behind his wife Saorina and two children, Savannah (17) and Trenton (12).

Despite his years-long medical ordeal, with one temporary win and then a relapse, Terry never once considered surrendering. Recently, it became evident that the fight had entered a new phase and Terry began to lay out plans to ensure his family would be provided for in the event that he was not around, but still he fought on. Tragically, Terry’s death arrived too suddenly to allow him to complete the necessary arrangements.

Terry always had big dreams, and he pursued those dreams unflinchingly right up until his final day. His latest and greatest project was to be the completion of a lifelong goal to build his dream home for himself and his family, a home in which he meant to eventually retire.

As a dedicated stay-at-home Mom and Terry's primary caregiver, Saorina lacks the immediate income to cover an imposing mountain of medical bills and construction costs bloated by Covid delays, not to mention day-to-day living expenses for herself and her kids. Her best shot at coming out of this with enough money to rebuild her life is to complete the house and then, sadly, sell it, having never moved in. Access to many of Terry’s remaining assets is expected to be a time-consuming and highly emotional challenge due to essential paperwork that was never completed, probate, and many other uncharted headwinds.

Please consider contributing any amount, no matter how small, to help Terry’s family weather these painful times.
