I was born and raised in
Alexander City, Alabama . My father was a Dentist and my
Mother a Teacher and both were Auburn Grads. As a child I
participated in all three levels of boy scouts. And loved
the outdoors. In the summers we lived at our lake cottage on
Lake Martin enjoying skiing , fishing, and hanging out with
friends.
I became a certified scuba diver
( YMCA,NAUI, & PADI ) at the age of 15. I began hunting at
the early age of nine and to this day it’s a sport I very
much enjoy. I attended Benjamin Russell High School and upon
graduation attended the University of Alabama and also
became a member of PHI KAPPA PHI fraternity. My wife (
Sherry ) and I have been married for twenty-three years.
We have six children and thirteen
grandchildren. I own Insulation Specialist
performing industrial and commercial insulation since 1985.
In 2000, I began work at Sylacauga Marine & ATV where I’m
currently employed as Parts and Warranty Administrator.
I started Hunter Education in 2006,
through the help of Jerry Fincher and Stuart Goldsby
becoming a volunteer instructor and eventually a certified
instructor for AHEA. I enjoy working with a dedicated group
of instructors that are very committed to the whole purpose
of AHEA and look forward to working with them in the future.

I have always enjoyed being in the outdoors and
cannot remember a time in my life that hunting and
shooting have not been a part of it.
I was born in Chilton County and have lived here all my
life. I have spent many weekends in Tallapoosa County
hunting on family property and enjoying the outdoors. I
have been the Auto Technology Instructor at the LeCroy
Career Technical since 2002. I enjoy working with kids
and helping them find their place in the career field.
My Wife (Trudy) and I became hunter education
instructors in 1997 and we have been very active
ever since. We teach classes in Chilton, Tallapoosa,
and Coosa counties. We also help with different
shooting events across the state. The reason I became a
hunter education instructor was to share my love for
hunting, the outdoors, and shooting sports. I believe
the more people I safely get involved in hunting and
shooting the more likely we will able to enjoy it. We
all know our hunting and shooting sports are under
attack and we must do what ever it takes to help pass
this privilege along to others. |
► Terry Love District
4 RepresentativeTerry Love
 My
father started me shooting in 1957 at the old age of
four with a Remington 22 semi-auto rifle. Then progressed to
rabbits and then deer by the age of eight using a single
shot .410 gauge Stevens shotgun. His love for me and the
outdoors helped direct me to work in Yellowstone Park for
several summers during school at Samford University and
Auburn University where I studied and graduated in Forest
Management.
After working many years as a Procurement Forester the
decision was made to work for myself at Forestry
Consultants, Inc. in Opelika, Alabama. There we work for
private landowners to assist them with their forest
management programs.
My instructing in Hunter Education started in 1988. With the
Hunter Education Program I am able to teach our youth the
joy and responsibility of managing our natural resources.
Being a Certified Instructor in Georgia, Tennessee, and
Alabama, I have been able to enjoy the great educational
programs available to our youth. Hopefully some of you will
decide to learn about the importance of managing our natural
resources so that our future generations can enjoy the true
beauty of wildlife.
My wife, Lisa Love, accompanies me on almost every outdoor
experience - no matter where I hunt or fish. I challenge you
to include your family in all your experiences.
Respectfully,
Terry Love
