Posted on: Saturday, July 13, 2019Bonnie and I would like to offer our sincerest condolences to Karen and family. It is impossible to think of Terry without getting a smile on our faces, remembering all the stories he could and would tell to put the smiles there. It was really hard to have a bad day if Terry was anywhere in your vicinity. Although we have not seen him in the last year or two, he will never be forgotten and will really be missed.

Posted on: Sunday, July 14, 2019It’s hard to believe Terry is gone! As teens we spent a lot of time together playing hockey, making music at dances, swimming, fishing and working picking tobacco and many other things. Although time and circumstances caused us to loose touch he was still considered a best friend. He will always be fondly remembered as a great fun loving guy. Our heartfelt condolences go out to Karen and the entire family. We trust you will find strength, comfort and peace as you walk through this most difficult time.
With our love and prayers,
Ted and Myrna Hoffman.

Posted on: Friday, July 19, 2019I really enjoyed working with Terry and knowing him after retirement on a more casual basis. He was an anchor to the real world within government bureaucracy; a fun and compassionate human being. I know he was in pain these past few years, but he bore it well. It is always too soon to lose a friend, spouse, parent, or grandparent. Luckily, Terry left many, many good memories. My sincere condolences on his loss. Take care of one another.
