Terry passed peacefully into the presence of his Heavenly Father on Monday, January 2, 2017. He was born in Robeline, LA., on September 8, 1941 and married the love of his life, Gwendolyn Butler on July 7, 1961.
He was a life-long member of First Baptist Church of Robeline and a member of the Robeline Masonic Lodge. After retirement, from Texaco Inc. with 32 and a half years of service as a production foreman, he became a vital part of the community while serving on the Valley Electric Board of Directors for 20 years, tending to family and neighbors needs, and fulfilled his desire to serve the Lord by using his expertise and skills to maintain and assist with the needs of the Church and the Church grounds including the Old Robeline Cemetery. He enjoyed working his cattle, land, and woodworking when home from work; however, his pride and joy came from spending time with his four grandsons hunting and watching their sporting events.
He is survived by his wife, Gwendolyn; his children, Denise and husband Wade Bostick of Dickinson Texas, Scott Lambert and Beverly Hood of Minden, LA.; his grandchildren, Gabriel Bostick and wife Jacquelin; Ethan Bostick, Garrett and Thomas Lambert; and one great-granddaughter, Georgia Bostick. His remaining siblings are Dorothy Fullerton and Dean Lambert and wife Amanda, one uncle, James Williams and wife Ola and a host of nieces and nephews.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Thomas and Addie Lambert, infant son, Todd Stephen Lambert, brothers-Jerry, Larry, Charles Ray and Dale Lambert along with 8 older siblings.
Pallbearers will be: grandsons-Gabriel and Ethan Bostick, Garrett and Thomas Lambert and nephews-David Lambert, Lance Lambert, George Lambert, and Kenny Fullerton.
