Remembering Terrance

A life held close in memory

Terrance Valentine II was born August 27, 1995. Those closest to him knew him as a son and stepson who belonged to a family in central Texas. He lived in the San Marcos area and, at 21 years old, was part of a generation of young people with their whole lives ahead of them.

Public records show that Terrance was found deceased in San Marcos on February 9, 2017. Beyond the circumstances recorded by authorities, the public record also records that he was laid to rest and remembered by family members — a reminder that his life connected with others and mattered to people who survived him.

While details about Terrance’s daily life, interests, or work are limited in the public sources available, the records confirm his identity and the basic facts of his life span. A court record and local reporting identify him by name and death date; cemetery records list his full name with birth and death dates and note family relationships such as his status as a stepson in burial records. Those pieces together form a brief but factual outline of a life that was real and loved even if fuller memories remain private to family and friends.

For those creating a memorial, it is important to center Terrance’s humanity rather than the manner of his death: he was a young man with a name, a family, and a place in his community. This page honors him by preserving his name, dates, and the respectful recognition that his passing affected people who cared for him. May this remembrance offer a small measure of dignity and acknowledgment to those who hold his memory.
