Terrence James "Terry" Lundy

LUNDY Terrence James (Terry) December 21, 1958 - January 26, 2008. Passed away peacefully at Langley Memorial Hospital on January 26th, 2008 after a brief illness. Terry was raised in Vancouver, spending his summers at Roberts Creek. He settled in Langley on his beloved five acres where he enjoyed his neighbours but cherished his privacy. He is predeceased by his father, Ross Durward Lundy in 1978 and his stepfather Ed Aveling in 2003. He is survived by his loving wife Cindy, sons Dylan and James Okemow, mother Beverley Aveling, brothers Douglas, Ronald and Robert Lundy and sister Heather Travis (Brian), nephew and nieces Luke and Jake Lundy, Jessica and Colin Travis, Anna Lee, Brayden and Coleton Lundy, several aunts, uncles, cousins, many wonderful friends and his faithful dog Charlie. Terry was the middle child of five and was the `conscience' of the family, always making sure everyone was okay. He often remarked how lucky he was to have his beautiful wife, Cindy and his two boys, Dylan and James. He was incredibly proud of his family and never took them for granted. He understood the finer things in life. He and Cindy shared a passion for fishing, and photos from Roberts Creek showcase some of the `beauties' they reeled in over his lifetime. He loved a broad range of music and poetry and was an accomplished guitarist. He loved nature and one of his greatest pleasures, aside from fishing, was to go for walks with Cindy and Charlie. Terry had a lot of friends, many from childhood. Compassionate, honest, and caring, Terry had a real sense of duty to his family and friends. He amazed us all with his sense of humour, even through his pain. He was courageous beyond our expectations and we thank him for all the love and happy memories he has given us. A very special thank you to Dr. Adamson for her exceptional compassion and care, to Nurse Stephanie and all the nurses and staff at Langley Memorial Hospital who helped care for Terry. A private Roberts Creek farewell will be held at a future date. A public celebration of Terry's life will be held at Henderson's Dignity Funeral Home, 20786 Fraser Highway, Langley, BC, V3A 4G6 on Saturday, February 9th at 11:00am. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to BC Cancer Foundation, Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada or a charity of your choice.
