John Terrill serves as Senior Vice President, Trust Officer, and Wealth Advisor in our Manhattan office. With more than two decades of experience in financial services, John joined The Trust Company after serving as Vice President and Trust Officer at The Peoples Bank/Smith County State Bank from 2003 to 2025.
He holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Kansas State University and is a Certified Trust and Fiduciary Advisor (CTFA). John is driven by a desire to personally assist clients and their families with the tools to navigate a lifetime of financial decisions.
John’s roots run deep in Kansas—Smith County is not only home to the geographic center of the contiguous U.S., but also where the state song, Home on the Range, was written. It’s fitting for someone whose career has been centered on helping people find peace, direction, and security in their financial lives.
Over the years, John has built meaningful relationships with his clients—one even offered him a kidney during a health crisis, saying, “I know you would do the same for me.”
When he’s not working with clients, you’ll likely find John cheering on the K-State Wildcats, spending quality time with his family, or playing a round of golf whenever he can.
Fun fact: John is also the proud father of our very own Kale Terrill, which means The Trust Company is getting double the Terrill talent!
