Terry Oglesby, 74, of Palacios, TX, passed away Sunday, January 20, 2019. He was born October 13, 1944 in El Campo, TX to S.T. "Curly" Oglesby and Elnora Alma Oglesby. Terry was a lifelong resident of Palacios and graduated Palacios High School in 1963. After high school Terry attended Texas A&I University where he played quarterback for the Javelinas and broke several passing records - some still stand today. He graduated from Texas A&I University in 1969 with a Bachelor of Science. Terry dedicated his time to the Palacios community as a successful business man, volunteer fire fighter, city councilman, little league coach, president and "man of the year" of the Fraternal order of Eagles, and a member of the First Presbyterian Church of Palacios.

He is survived by his wife Jan Hunter of Palacios, TX; his sister Jan Hooker and her husband Bobby of Del Rio, TX; his two sons: Dax Oglesby & wife Amy of Liberty Hill, TX; and Trent Oglesby & wife Amy of Fulshear, TX; his two stepdaughters: Lauren Hunter; and Lisa Hunter; and by grandchildren: Madeline, Mary Elizabeth, Ashton, Trennon, Isabella, Kailey, and Justice; and many, many loving cousins.

Terry enjoyed sharing his bayside view with Jan, fishing in the Tres Palacios Bay, playing golf with his sons and cousins, watching his grandchildren compete in all their various events, and entertaining family and friends. He will be greatly missed by all that knew him, but his positive nature, generous heart and just overall coolness will always remain with us.

A memorial service will be held at 1:00 PM Saturday, January 26, 2019 at the First Presbyterian Church of Palacios with Rev. Chuck Kimball officiating. In lieu of flowers please make donations to the First Presbyterian Church of Palacios.
