Terry William Halloran was born on August 28, 1938 in Mason City, the son of William and Mary (Kiley) Halloran. He grew in Rockwell and attended and graduated from Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Rockwell. Following high school Terry enlisted in the United States Army. Upon his honorable discharge from the military in 1958 Terry returned to Iowa where he spent the next forty years working for AMPI in Mason City.

On November 26, 1960 Terry was united in marriage to Marilyn K. Mason at Holy Family Catholic Church in Mason City; this union would be blessed with four children.

Terry loved the outdoors and was an avid fisherman; he also loved bicycling, riding in RAGBRAI. One of Terry greatest gifts was the gift of gab, which led him to never know a stranger. Above all else he loved spending time with his family and friends.

He was a proud member of the Teamster Union, the Democratic Party, St. Joseph Catholic Church, and the Knights of Columbus.

Those grateful in sharing in Terry's life are his wife, Marilyn; his children, Mike Halloran, Mason City, Mark (Chris) Halloran, Mason City, Sue (Kevin) Johannsen, North Liberty, and Bob (Rebekah Rein) Halloran, Seattle; he was a proud grandfather to, Kyle and Annika Johannsen, and June Hunter Halloran; his siblings, Rita Rogers, Tucson, AZ, and Joe Halloran, Clear Lake; his sister in law, Mary Lou Halloran, Mason City; and many nieces, nephews, and extended relatives.

Terry is preceded in death by his parents; and his siblings, Tom Halloran, Leo Halloran, Mary Ann Canchola, and a sister in infancy, Patricia.
