Woodinville, WALocal News

Terry Jarvis, a beloved figure in Woodinville, passed away on March 6, 2024, at the age of 83 due to complications from Parkinson's disease. His passion for cars began at a young age, driving a 1924 Ford Model T at just nine years old, which led him to co-found Vintage Auto Parts in Seattle in 1960. The business later moved to Woodinville, becoming a premier destination for antique and classic car parts. Terry was a charter member of the Woodinville Rotary Club and played a significant role in re-establishing the Township of Grace, humorously calling himself 'Mayor-for-Life. ' He is survived by his wife Cherry, daughters Kristin and Jennifer, and four grandchildren.

Terry's infectious smile and lighthearted spirit enriched the lives of many, and he is remembered for his philosophy, 'Having Fun is Serious Business. ' Donations in his memory can be made to the Scholarship Foundation of Northshore—Town of Grace Scholarship.
