Terry W. Corbin, 73, of Columbia, KY died Friday, April 17, 2026 at his home. He was born November 8, 1952 in Columbia to the late Buford and Doris Kemp Corbin.
Terry had made a profession of faith in Christ and was a member of the Shiloh Christian Church. While we will all miss him here, we are sure he is playing that bass guitar in God’s chair as proud as he did at Shiloh Chrisitan Church. He was honored to serve as deacon and always wanted to be at every service as health would allow him to. Terry was well known as the “Black Top Man” as he had a career with Gaddie-Shamrock for over 40 years. He was always ready to start a conversation with anyone he met. He had many stories about people he got to know along his way. He was a kind hardworking man that enjoyed life to the fullest. He enjoyed riding motorcycles, hunting, and fishing with his buddy, Donnie.
In addition to his parents, he was also preceded in death by one son, Terry Norman Corbin; one brother, Dwayne Corbin; one sister-in-law, Martie Corbin, and two Nephews: Jamie Corbin and Jason Corbin.
