Terry Weldon Nobles, 73, of Dunkirk passed away March 17, 2022. He was born July 19, 1948 in Washington, NC to Charles Edmond and Alice Joyce (Gardner) Nobles. Terry grew up in New Bern, NC and moved to Maryland when he was 15. He graduated from Central High School. Terry married Betty Hendricks in 1966 and the lived in Prince George's County before moving to Dunkirk in 1976. Terry worked for various government agencies throughout his career and retired from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as Chief of System Operations in 2003. He was a very active member of Smithville United Methodist Church, where he served as a trustee, chair of the cemetery committee, volunteered in the kitchen, and sang in the choir. Terry also served with God's Bounty, and thoroughly enjoyed providing food for the needy. Terry loved working in and around church with his best friend Billy Barnes. Together they helped raise funds for Zimbabwe through auctions under the name "Barnes and Noble". Terry was well known throughout the county for his "Pig Piks" at his home and church where he would roast a pig and use his famous North Carolina style Bar-B-Que sauce. Terry loved helping others, cooking, and fixing things. He enjoyed playing basketball with his son and grandson and attending his grandchildren's sporting events. Most of all though, Terry adored his family and got the most joy out of being with and spoiling his son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren.

Terry is survived by his loving wife Betty Nobles, son David Nobles and his wife Jennifer, grandchildren Alexia Kinkaid Nobles and David Chase Nobles, mother-in-law Helen Hendricks, sisters-in-law Sandra Wright and Marilyn Cook, and numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.
