Mr. Terry Lee Boyles

It is with sadness that the family of Terry Lee Boyles of Hartsville, S.C., announces his passing after a long and courageous battle with cancer on Monday, November 12, 2018, at the age of 60 years. The youngest son of Howard and Grace Boyles, Terry was born on December 4, 1957, and grew up in Cramerton, N.C. He graduated from South Point High School in Belmont, N.C., and went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in physical education from Mars Hill College and a master’s degree in counseling from South Carolina State University. A devoted father, he raised his family in Darlington, S.C., where he enjoyed coaching little league sports and was an active member of Trinity United Methodist Church. After 26 years as planning manager of the Galey & Lord textile plant in Society Hill, S.C., Terry moved to Hartsville, S.C., where he finished his career as center manager of the South Carolina Vocational Rehabilitation Center - Hartsville — he loved his co-workers and clients there — and was a member of St. Luke United Methodist Church. A man of exceptional character and personal strength, Terry will be greatly missed from the lives of those who knew him, especially his warm smile and gentle spirit. He was an avid follower of college athletics, growing up a University of North Carolina basketball fan before going “All IN” with the Clemson Tigers. In addition to his parents, Terry is survived by his junior high school sweetheart and wife of 38 years, Jennifer Boyles of Hartsville, S.C.; his children, Ben Boyles of Rock Hill, S.C., Will Boyles (Rebecca) of Florence, S.C., Drew Boyles of Mount Pleasant, S.C., and Christina Boyles of Hartsville, S.C.; his granddaughter, Adeline of Florence, S.C.; his brothers, Ronnie Boyles (Peggy) and Ricky Boyles of Gastonia, N.C; his mother-in-law Joan Hutto of Fort Mill, S.C.; his brother-in-law Andy Hutto (Miriam) of Fort Mill, S.C.; his, sister-in-law Melissa Cotton (Will) of Fort Mill, S.C.; and a loving extended family. He was preceded in death by his father-in-law George Hutto Jr. of Fort Mill, S.C. Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, November 16, 2018, at St. Luke’s United Methodist Church, Hartsville, S.C. The Rev.
