Terence Traut
After high school, I went to St. Cloud State and received an Elementary Ed degree (and an honorary degree in disco with my partner, Julie Hanson). I did my student teaching in Spain and fell in love with Europe. My first year teaching (back in Sauk at Holy Family School) was spent searching for someone to return to Europe on a bicycle trip. I found her, married her, and Cathy and I not only biked in Europe, we spent five years there. Our two girls were born in Ansbach, Germany. We returned to the states so I could work on my doctorate at Boston University.
After two years in Lowell, MA, we ended up in Merrimack, NH and called it home for 25 years. Along the way, I started a training business called Entelechy, Inc. which focuses on customized leadership development programs for larger companies like Comcast, Republic Services, DIRECTV, Thermo Fisher Scientific, etc. The work was very satisfying and took me to all corners of the world. I just (Feb 2025) sold the business which currently employs 12 people.
We bought a lake house in late 2013 and, with Cathy's retirement as a kindergarten teacher in 2015, we moved up here full time in 2014.
Our older daughter, Katie, married in 2013 and lives near Boston with her husband, Brian, and their two daughters, Claire (2016) and Anna (2018). Younger daughter Peggy lives near Boston with her husband, Devin, and their son, Victor (2019) and daughter, Josie (2021).
We (still) love concerts, pontooning, floating, kayaking, and travel.
