Terrence “Terry” Gibbons, 58, passed away at home, surrounded by family and friends on June 5 after a brief battle with brain cancer. Terry was born in Brooklyn and raised in Travis, Staten Island. He attended Moore Catholic and Susan Wagner high schools. Terry enlisted in the U.S. Navy. He served aboard the U.S.S. Constellation CV-64 as a Hull Technician (Naval Firefighter) from 1984-1987. Following an honorable discharge, he continued his military career in the Navy Reserve. He remained a proud patriot throughout his life. He was an active member of American Legion Post 347 Lady Lake, FL.
In 1988 Terry began working as a plumber at NY Presbyterian Hospital. In his early years at the hospital Terry earned the Good Samaritan Award. His sharp mind and attention to detail enabled him to help the hospital through historic events including 9-11, major blackouts, Super Storm Sandy, various hurricanes and everyday emergencies. He was a frontline worker through the Covid-19 pandemic. Terry spent 36 years as the “Go-To Guy” taking care of “his” hospital.
An avid outdoorsman, Terry spent most weekends off the grid camping and hiking in the mountains. He enjoyed bike riding, scuba diving and skydiving. Over the years, he and his wife Linda traveled extensively to places including Costa Rica, Cuba, Israel, Tanzania, Galápagos Islands and Mexico. They also spent many vacations hiking various parts of the U.S. including three trips to the Grand Canyon.
His love for his Irish heritage led him to obtain his Irish citizenship in 2018. One of Terry’s greatest achievements came in 2023 when he summited Mount Kilimanjaro.
Terry will be remembered for his love for Linda and his family. His humor, incredibly quick wit and storytelling abilities will surely be missed.
He is predeceased by his parents, John & Meg Gibbons. He is survived by his loving wife of 23 years, Linda, his son Kevin Gibbons-Mullen, his three sisters: Jennifer, Joann & Judith, his Mother-in-Law, Dellene, numerous sisters and brothers-in-law and his many nieces and nephews.
In lieu of flowers the family requests donations to either- The Wounded Warrior Project.
