Terry R. Ames

Terry was a 1980 graduate of Westfield Academy and Central School, where he was an outstanding athlete, excelling in basketball and football.

He attended Alfred State University and Jamestown Business College and had been employed as an outside Salesperson for Barmore-Sellstrom Inc. Tire Co. for many years.

He enjoyed racing motocross in his youth, was course champion at Woodcrest Country Club and was a little league baseball coach for several years. He was an Oakland Raiders fan and enjoyed his fantasy football league. He loved all sports, however, he greatly enjoyed watching his children in all their sporting events and activities. He had a unique sense of humor and enjoyed making other people smile, squirm and laugh! But above all, his family was everything to him.

Besides his mother and father, Robert and Alice Ames of Westfield, Terry is survived by his son, Zachery Ames of Bemus Point; and by his three daughters, Kayla, Kennedy and Kourtney Ames of Sherman. Terry is further survived by his three brothers, Christopher J. (Kathy) Ames of Mayville, Todd R. (Donna) Ames of Delaware, OH and Andrew R. (Carrie) Ames of South Ripley. Several nieces and nephews also survive.
