Terrance (Terry) Charles Greenman passed away peacefully in his favorite place of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico on March 25, 2022. He was 77 years old.
Terry was born on January 12, 1945 in Portland, Oregon. He was the oldest of three brothers born to Reba Ruth Greenman and Melvin (Mel) LaVerne Greenman. Terry grew up in West Linn, Oregon and graduated from West Linn High School in 1963. He married the love of his life, Diane Greenman, on December 1, 1990 in Reno, Nevada.
Terry joined Brockamp & Jaeger in 1979, he became a partner in 1986 and the majority stockholder in 1997. Terry's reputation for quality work was based on years of successful construction projects for a diverse group of owners and clients. Terry maintained a service philosophy of personalized attention to all his customers that has been the heart of Brockamp & Jaeger's operation for more than 43 years. Terry's philosophy leaves a legacy in all areas of the company.
He was an avid fisherman and boater and spent countless hours enjoying both pursuits. Terry and Diane were members of the Columbia River Yacht Club for over 20 years. He loved spending time in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, which became a second home to him and Diane. Terry had a tremendous sense of humor and was a prankster throughout his life and he delighted in teasing his family and friends. He will be remembered as a tough but kind-hearted man who was loved and respected by those who knew him. Terry's greatest enjoyment in life was his family and spending time with his three great-grandchildren gave him the most joy of all.
Terry is survived by his loving wife of 31 years, Diane Greenman; three daughters, Sonja Gonzalez (Pedro), Susan Sheely (Chris), and Kari Miller; brother, Ron Greenman (Linda); 5 grandchildren; 3 great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Mel and Reba Greenman; and brother, Dennis Greenman.
