Sitting on a blanket under the willow tree with you and Brenda on Fifth Ave when you were a baby. Your Lego blocks and little football & helmet on Birchwood Drive. Your first time in skates. Fishing on Georgian Bay. The pail of water you threw on me with laughter so loud from Brenda's bedroom window on Longbourne Cres. Terry, these are but a few of the happy fun memories I have of you. There are so many. I miss our pep talks and exchange of ideas. I think of them often and they still help guide me - thank you! You gave so much and I am grateful for you. I love you Terry, my little big brother, always in my heart. Forever, your sister, Barbara XOXOXOXOXO

Terry was a joy to work with. He was always the one to come through the door each morning with a funny story or just a chat about last nights game. Terry you were a friend and will not be forgotton.

God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered, come to me. With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.

Terry will be missed. He was a great guy to work with, always a smile and ready to help when needed. It was obvious to all who knew him, how important his family was to him and how much he loved them. He will not be forgotten.

Terry will be missed. He had a huge heart, and an incredible sense of humor. When people encountered him, he had a certain charm that brought you close to him. He always enjoyed a good laugh or a joke. I just want to tell the Family how deeply sorry I am for their loss. I know the family will find the strength to move forward in this difficult time. Time and memories bring comfort by reminding us of how precious life is.

I worked with Terry for what could be considered a short time, however in that time I grew a deep respect for him, his beliefs, and his family. He will be missed by all those who have seen him smile..... Everyone he ever met! His smile could light the darkest of rooms and warm the coldest of hearts. He will be forever remembered. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Terry and I met through a professional Builder/Trade relationship and in no time at all we developed a friendship. Terry always had a big smile on his face and went the extra mile to assist us in any way he could. (I would be remiss if I didn't mention his patience!) Most of all, Terry was so likeable and friendly and my entire Team always looked forward to his visits to our office. I will always remember how much he assisted me with my own home and how he personally invested time making numerous trips during construction to ensure it was was done right.
We will always remember him dearly and our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
