Terry was born on November 21, 1944, in Bismarck, the son of Erich and Evelyn (Taylor) Wilkens. Terry attended a rural one room schoolhouse for elementary school. As a young boy, Terry worked on the farm and was involved in 4-H. He attended high school in New Salem, graduating in 1963, and then attended Bismarck Junior College. On May 2, 1964, Terry married Diane Bobb. They made their home on the family dairy farm. Terry milked registered Holsteins, farmed grains, and raised Simmental cattle for a while. Terry worked the farm and dairy alongside his father until 1971 when he took over the dairy operation. Terry and Diane milked cows until 2000, at which time they sold the dairy herd. Terry continued to farm and raise beef cattle. In 2001, his son, Travis and his family moved to the farm. Terry continued to farm with his son until his death. Terry received many honors and recognitions over the years, including the West Morton County Soil District Award in 1968 and the Outstanding Young Farmer Award from the New Salem Jaycees in 1976.
