Terrance “Terry” Gregory Feltz, 75, of Wausau, Wisconsin, died Thursday, September 15th, 2022 after a long struggle with Parkinson’s disease and ultimately COVID. Terry was born April 11th, 1947 in Stevens Point, WI. After graduating from Pacelli High School in 1965, he went on to UW Stevens Point, earning degrees in Natural Resources and Soil Management. Upon completion of college, Terry served in the US Army until 1971. After his military service, he sought a teaching degree at UW Madison and then started a career teaching in the D.C. Everest School District. In 1974, he met the love of his life Julie Soviniski, also a teacher. Julie and Terry were married in 1977, and later had two children Kelly and Mitch. Terry began a sales and consulting career that continued until his retirement in 2007. Throughout his life, Terry enjoyed the outdoors, his cottage “up north” and travel. Terry traveled to 20 countries and 49 states. To Terry, life’s journeys were as valuable as the destinations. He felt one should work hard and play harder.
Survivors include his wife, Julie; two children, Kelly Feltz and Mitch (Shannon) Feltz; four grandchildren, Bella and Sophia Osinga, Alyce and Margaret Feltz; and one sister, Karlyn (Dave Osterbrink) Feltz.
An open house to celebrate a life well lived will be held from 1:00 until 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 24th, 2022 at his home, 170918 Plover River Road, Hatley, WI. A private service will be held at a later date at his cottage up north.
