TERRENCE PATRICK MORRIS
If you are reading this - in the words of a dear friend – “I am GONZO! Love you Wayno.”
Looking back on my life I never thought I would die, but somewhere in the back of my mind, I always knew the possibility was there.
I was born in Thunder Bay, Ontario and I was predeceased by my lovely daughter, Melodie, by my mother Sarah, my parents-in-law Fred and Connie and I assume, by my father who was born in London, England.
I am survived by my beautiful, loving, tender spirited wife Glynis. Sweetheart, all these years you were always there for me, and I love you very much. I am also survived by my wonderful children Terry (Betty), Flynne, Michelle, John (Jessica) and Joey (Deb). Also, my grandchildren Kyle, Eric and Julia, Callie and Keenan, Zoe and Deven and Molly, Julianne and Anders. I regret that I didn't have the opportunity to cultivate stronger relationships with Joey's sons Chris and Kelly.
I am survived by my sister Ellen (George) and my sister-in-law, Diane, and many nieces and nephews. I bid a fond farewell to my good friends and golfing buddies Ron Osesky, Ray St. Germaine, Owen Clark, Walle Larsson, Kirk Stanley and Frank Weiner.
I am on a journey to rejoin my sweet daughter Melodie, and my close friends Pat Riordan, Marty Corne, Roy Petty, Jim Jamieson Sr., Tom Schultz, Bill McGillivray, Mike Pestrak and the many good friends that have passed before me.
Finally, in closing, I once read a quote by a 95-year-old woman who listed the 40 ways she had achieved happiness. One resonated with me. "FORGIVE EVERYONE EVERYTHING."
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right. I hope you had the time of your life (Time of Your Life by Green Day).
Cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
Friends and family are invited to visit Terry’s memorial page at www.interlakecremation.ca, where memories and condolences may be shared.
