On February 14, 2022 Terry ended a long battle of suffering from the ravages of myasthenia gravis, which caused a myriad of debilitating complications and illnesses. He never gave up from fulfilling obligations to be a husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. Now his battles are over. He has earned his rest.

He moved his family to Lafayette in 1965. He was a founding member of Acadiana Flow Measurement Society which was started in 1965 by a group of pipeline and production personnel and help from USL (UL) in Lafayette. He was a long-time member of St. Jules Knights of Columbus council and as such, he volunteered his time helping the charity, Extra Mile. He was a volunteer little league coach for football, baseball, and basketball when his four sons were playing. Lafayette soon became "home" to the entire family. After he retired, he spent many happy hours playing cards with his buddies at the Rose House. He is survived by his wife of 67 years, Vera Ortego Prudhomme, and sons, Mark (Mary), Dwight (Judy) & Billy (Shelia); one son-in-law, Rick Hawkins. He leaves to remember him, five grandchildren: Kevin Hawkins, Erin Thomas, Phillip Bossier, Christopher Prudhomme and Ava Prudhomme. He has ten great-grandchildren whom he loved very much.
