Staff Report
July 1, 1952 – July 12, 2025
Terry Lee Yohey of Fallon, Nevada, passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on July 12, 2025, at Renown Hospital after a short battle with cancer.
She was born in Reno, Nevada, on 1 July 1952 to Joseph and Margaret Norcross. A graduate from Reno High School, Terry spent her life living and serving the people of Fallon. Terry’s first and only job was at Raley’s, where she spent 31 years, retiring in 2009.
Terry was an adventurer who loved to travel. Terry’s highlight was the three-and-a-half-month trip around the world. During that time, she visited Europe, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and Mexico visiting ancient historical sites. Terry loved Ireland and had visited four times. Terry had a passion for deep sea fishing, reeling in marlin and tuna in Europe, Mexico and New Zealand. Don’t ever interrupt her during NASCAR racing or soap operas, or she would give you the eye roll and “shh.” Her favorite time was in the kitchen cooking for loved ones on any occasion.
Terry was preceded in death by her parents and her daughter Courtney. She is survived by her husband of 55 years Mike, and her two daughters, Yvonne (Troy) Shores and Jenny (Robert) Morton; and her nine grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren.
Service will be held at Oasis Community Church, 1520 South Main Street, Fallon, NV, on 23 Aug. 2025 at 1 p.m. by Pastor Caleb Szymanski. There will be a meal served immediately after the service.
In lieu of flowers and gifts, please donate to Oasis Community Church in the name of Terry Yohey.
