Terry "Spanky" Hadaway

Terry “Spanky” Hadaway of Lubbock passed away surrounded by family and friends on Monday, December 23, 2024, at the age of 54. He was born June 19, 1970, in Alexandria, Virginia to Grady and Patricia (German) Hadaway. As a 16-year-old teen, Terry began working at Pizza Hut and worked his way up to being a manager within the company. For the last 30 years, he has worked for Simflo-Simmons Pump in Lubbock, ending his career as the production manager. 

Terry loved spending time with family and friends and enjoyed bowling on leagues at Whitewood Lanes. In 2012 became an active member of the Boozefighters MC, Chapter 17 where he served as president for eight years. One of the many things the Boozefighters MC brought to the community was the joy of Christmas. They spent time delivering gifts to Covenant Children’s Hospital and seeking out families in need during the holiday season.
