Family and friends remembered Terhune for his love of God, family and country.

Family friend Dustin Hamilton said Terhune enlisted in the Marines right out of high school. He said Terhune's father, grandfather and uncle also served in the armed forces.

His uncle, David Terhune, told WKYT-TV that he was “an officer, and a gentleman and a patriot.”

His funeral will be at 10:30 a.m. Saturday at Anchor Baptist Church, 3601 Winthrop Drive.

Visitation will be 5 to 9 p.m. Friday at Kerr Brothers Funeral Home, 3421 Harrodsburg Road.
