Terry was born November 18, 1965 in Hastings, Nebraska to Dennis & Sandra (Shaw) Plambeck. He graduated from Adams Central High School in 1984 and attended Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas and Kearney State College in Kearney, Nebraska. Terry married Rochelle Ruhter on June 2, 1990 at Christ Lutheran Church, Juniata. He was an area farmer and rancher for many years. Terry was a member of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Holstein, Webster County Ag Association where he served as Rodeo Chairman for 17 years, Nebraska Cattleman’s Association and was a past member of the Holstein Volunteer Fire Department. He was a member of the Kearney Choraliers and was a soloist for numerous weddings and other events. Terry was also a past Sunday school teacher and 4-H leader. Terry, along with his brother Brad, received the Kiwanis Farm Family of the year award in 2010.
Terry’s pride and joy in life were his wife, children, and the rest of his family. He was a stranger to no one, as he loved to talk to everyone. One of his greatest passions in life was raising and taking care of his cattle. He was always the happiest when he was with his “cows” and made it a point to pass that same passion on to his children. Terry always said that the most important thing in life is what you do for your kids and what you pass on to them. He lived that passion by many countless hours spent on the Webster County Ag Association as Rodeo Chairman. He felt that keeping the 4-H program strong and continuing the rodeo were a vital tradition to be continued in Webster County. He will always be remembered by his many family and friends for his big heart and big voice.
Terry was preceded in death by his father, Dennis Plambeck; sister, Crystal Plambeck; grandparents, Erwin Plambeck and John & Fern Shaw; father-in-law, Waldo Ruhter; and brother-in-law, Warren Ruhter.
