Terry FITZPATRICK

Terry Fitzpatrick, my oldest childhood friend. This obituary comes as a complete surprise. I had no idea Fitz was suffering. My last memory of his outrageous, irreverent, and loyal sense of humor came from a cell phone pic with my cousin Kris, both of whom were celebrating our Lewis and Clark High School reunion, the one I missed. Terry had lots of brothers but I always lived with a sense of kinship knowing that he included me as one of his family. I've traveled the world. My experiences and...

I have so many good memories of Fitz through WEA. Fitz was assigned as a Zone Lead for a strike build up for which I was the lead. We were in a smaller town in North, WA. One hardware store, a couple of bars. I asked Fitz to hop around town spreading the word of the pending strike. To say Fitz did not know a stranger was an understatement. Also sent him to the hardware store to see if they could shave/cut sticks for picket signs. He understood organizing. And, did I mention he was as...

The Elk and Deer would hide at the sight of Fitz and his bow. Use to have morning coffee in his building and he would come to our building for coffee. We all had good conversations. Fitz will be missed by every one who knew him. May his light shine bright !

My sincere condolences to Maureen and the entire family . . . Rory

I knew Fitz from Lewis and Clark HS. He was a fierce wrestler but always had a happy demeanor. My deepest condolences to his family and friends, may you find peace in your joyful memories of Terry.

I met Fitz at the WEA Leadership Academy in 1992 when we were both new local presidents. Later, we were colleagues working for the WEA. Fitz was an all around good and caring person. I can still hear is laugh. I hadn´t seen him since his retirement, but I kept up with him on FB. Dang, he deserved a much longer life. I´m sure he will be greatly missed by his family and friends.

Terry was my first year teacher in the electronics program at SCC back in 1982-83. He was one of the best teachers I've ever had. My condolences to the family.

Fits was a colleague and most importantly a friend. He will be missed.

Prayers and God's Blessings to the Entire Family!
