Terry Everett Wilcox
 
Terry E. Wilcox, 75, died Saturday, November 19, 2022 at Highland Nursing Home in Massena,
NY. Terry was born in Watertown, NY, the son of Everett and Doris Snyder Wilcox. He was
preceded in death by his parents, his sister, Patricia Counoupas, and his wife of 32 years,
Bronwyn Wilcox (Rosenquist).  
 
Terry grew up in Watertown, graduating from Watertown High School in 1965. He attended
SUNY at Albany and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in History/Social Studies
Education in 1969. In August 1985, Terry married Bronwyn, who had a creative and loving
spirit. They were married for 32 years until Bronwyn passed away in 2017. They both worked in
the mental health field and had many friends in the Clayton area.  
 
Terry's commitment to the healing professions included working with soldiers at Ft. Drum, who
suffered from PTSD as they returned from combat. He volunteered to serve on the Boards of The
Mental Health Association and of Mercy Behavioral Health. He also served on the State
Commission of Quality of Care for the Mentally Disabled. Terry retired from the Jefferson
Rehabilitation Center in 2008, where he served as a Treatment Coordinator.
 
Terry was passionate about baseball cards, setting up and operating a sports card store in Clayton
from 1988-1995. Many local children saved their allowances to spend there and benefit from
Terry’s expertise.
 
A celebration of Terry's life will be held privately. Donations can be made to the Jefferson
Rehabilitation Center, Watertown, NY for the benefit of people with disabilities.
