Uncle Terry, I am truly blessed to of experienced so much in life and throughout my childhood with you, from Canada to Mexico to the propeller falling off the boat and having to be rescued. You sure did make our time with you full of laughter and love and I will forever cherish those memories we shared. You will be forever loved and missed by us all. Leanne xx

When I heard of Terry's passing, my heart instantly hurt for you Pam, I have never seen two people that belonged together like Terry and yourself, you made sure that you never wasted a day together, my dad worked with Terry and would be very sad to hear this news, be kind to yourself and rest with a few beverages and never stop remembering your wonderful life the two of you had.

My Uncle Buck. Constant and caring, a guiding light in my life from day one. So much more than an uncle. Often an ocean between us but plenty of time spent together here, there, and elsewhere. You were always a great correspondent: letters in the old days before you were the first person I knew with an email address! You always made sure we stayed closed, kept in touch, when doing so took time out of your day; until Facebook and WhatsApp came along and made it feel like you were just around the corner with wise words, a great story to tell, your cheer and silly sense of humour. Words cannot convey how much I miss you. Always in my heart. Kelly xxxx

I’m heartbroken to hear about Uncle Terry’s passing. He was such a big part of my life and my happiest memories in Canada. From the time I spent visiting to getting married there, he was always there with his warm smile, his laughter, and his big heart. . He will be truly, deeply missed, and there will always be a special place in my heart for him. Please know I’m holding you Aunty Pam in my thoughts and sending love across the miles during this difficult time. Lots of Love Collette
