ESTHERVILLE — Terry D. Koenecke, 81, of Auburndale, Florida, formerly of Estherville, died December 8, 2025, at Winter Haven Hospital in Florida.
A visitation gathering will be held from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. Friday, June 26, 2026, at Henry-Olson Funeral Home in Estherville.
Terry was born January 18, 1944. His life carried him from North Iowa to Florida, but his Estherville roots remained an important part of his story.
Those who knew Terry will remember his friendships, his connection to the people and places of his earlier years, and the life he built across the decades.
Terry was also known as an avid NASCAR fan, especially of Dale Earnhardt. For those close to him, that passion was part of the personality and interests that made him who he was.
His death leaves family and friends with memories of a man whose life stretched across communities, seasons and miles, but whose story remained tied to the people who knew him best.
