The resolution honors the life and legacy of Terrill A. Cover, who passed away on June 5, 2025, at the age of 78. Born on April 8, 1947, in a family that included his parents, Kathryn and Oliver Cover, and two sisters, Terry had a diverse upbringing that included time spent in Germany before settling in Windcrest, Texas. He pursued higher education at San Antonio College and Texas State University, ultimately earning a master's degree and a superintendent certificate. Terry had a distinguished career in education, serving as a coach, principal, and athletic director, and was recognized for his contributions to the Texas PTA and various educational associations.

The resolution reflects on Terry Cover's deep commitment to family, his 46-year marriage to Maria Elena Reyes-Cover, and his pride in their children, Larissa and Ryan. In addition to his professional achievements, he enjoyed hobbies such as running marathons, painting, reading, and fishing, all while drawing strength from his Catholic faith. The Texas House of Representatives expresses its condolences to his family and friends, acknowledging the warmth, kindness, and generosity that Terry brought to those around him, and resolves to honor his memory as they adjourn.
