Terrie Swaringen

Terrie Jean Mason Swaringen, 72, of Concord, passed away on Sunday, February 25, 2024, at Atrium Health Cabarrus, surrounded by her loving family.

She was born on June 14, 1951, in Concord, to the late Katherine Edgison Mason and Leonard Mason. Terrie was also preceded in death by her brother, Rick Mason.

Terrie was a graduate of Northwest Cabarrus High School in Concord. She dedicated 27 years of her life to serving Cabarrus County Schools, where she worked as a beloved bus driver. Terrie had a special connection with her students, and many of them knew her well. In addition to her work with the school system, she also operated a residential cleaning company for over 20 years.

One of Terrie's greatest joys in life was traveling with her husband, David. They embarked on adventures together all over the world, but Terrie's favorite destination was the Caribbean. She cherished the memories made during their travels and the special moments they shared exploring new places.

Terrie is survived by her husband of 54 years, David M. Swaringen; her son, David M. Swaringen II, and his wife, Jamie; and her beloved grandchildren, Mason and Michael Swaringen.

The family will receive friends at Wilkinson Funeral Home on Wednesday, February 28, 2024, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.

As we remember Terrie, let us hold onto the cherished memories we shared with her and find comfort in the love she brought into our lives. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing her.

May she rest in peace.
