Terrell William Caudle

Terrell (Terry) William Caudle peacefully transitioned from life in this world to his new home in Heaven on Sunday, April 26, 2026. He was born on December 16, 1956, in Montgomery, Alabama. Terry graduated from Autauga County High School in 1974. He played the drums in the ACHS Marching Band. He loved playing his guitar and continued it until shortly before his death. He knew all the Beatles songs. He would play his guitar while he was in the nursing home when he could be talked into it (he wasn’t fond of the spotlight). Terry drove a truck for most of his working life. He enjoyed being on the road and seeing new sights. He had a calm quiet spirit and was loved by all who knew him.

Terry was preceded in death by his wife, Debra Faye Wingler Caudle, his parents, Howard Earl Caudle and Jean Hartley Caudle, his grandparents, Terrell Shelby Caudle and Arlene Hartley Caudle and his niece Rebekah Michele Culpepper.
