Terry A. BORDEN, 66, of Lakeville, died on Friday, March 14, 2025, at home due to known medical issues.
He was born on March 29, 1959, in Warsaw, the son of the late Alton “Pete” Borden and Vonda (James) Burrows.

Terry was raised in Caneadea and graduated from Belmont High School in 1977. In his early adulthood he moved to Castile, but shortly after moved to Nunda, where he lived for over 30 years. Working a handful of odd jobs, he found his career as a fabric cutter for Seating Inc. of Nunda, for whom he was employed by for 29 years, retiring in 2024.
