Terrence O'Rourke

What a blessing to have the privilege of knowing Terry, we are cousins by marriage; both being lucky enough to marry Corbett ladies. We will fondly remember our times together on the golf course, at Lake Michigan or time together in Grand Rapids. We looked forward to our many shared dinners and conversations. Our Lord Jesus called home a great man, he will be missed by many here left behind. May the wind always be at your back my friend until we meet again.

Loving prayers -

Rest in peace Terry. I know my mom (Alice O'Rourke Sawicki) always spoke in pride about you. Enjoyed getting to know you for the first time at Pat O'Rourke's ship commissioning in Boston and always enjoyed our brief times together at reunions. Wish I could have been at the services in person, but sending love and peace to the O'Rourke Family.

Great person! Always a smart, class act. While working at Blodgett, Terry always carried abbreviated notes of the hospitals finances in his pocket. His obituary suggests this was a lifelong habit! Probably continued to do so while helping create Spectrum. Learned much from Terry and feel lucky to have known him. Rest In Peace friend.

Thank you Mr O’Rourke for making Blodgett, a better place, while you were our leader! You will be missed by many! Condolences to his family and close friends.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

I worked at Spectrum/Blodgett for more than 10 years of Terry O’Rourke’s tenure there. He was an administrator who cared about his employees and the care provided to patients. I once got on the elevator with him and thinking I was just another nameless employee to him, he called me by name and surprised me by actually knowing something about me beyond my name. He always said hello in the hall. I have fond memories of the time I worked there and he is a part of many of the reasons I was proud...

Condolences to the family. Have many fond memories of working with Terry. A great leader and wonderful gentleman.
