To Lyn, family & friends of Terry,
How terribly shocking & I am sad to hear of Terry’s sudden passing. My thoughts and prayers and heartfelt condolences to you all. He was a lot of things to a lot of people and will be missed so so much. I don’t think I ever saw him without a smile on his face and even at this moment I can picture him standing rinkside laughing and joking with everyone. Hopefully, in time, you will be able to remember and reflect on happy memories to help you get through this most difficult time.

Trish & Henry
There were so many special times spent with the Malcher family, so many wonderful memories at so many arenas, those years ago. I can’t think of that time in our lives without remembering how much fun we hand, how kind and involved both of you were. Whether it was primitive texting late at night to convey game results,(ICQ!) or hanging out in rinks all over Ontario, and Switzerlan, a quick scan up into the stands, we always knew where to look…Terry would be there….next to the stairs surrounded by vacant seats… He has been taken long before his time…… Lyn, Kim and Kelly, to each you, and your families, we extend a warm hug and send our most sincere condolences. You are in our thoughts and prayers,
In sympathy and friendship, Trish & Henry

Sindy, Isaak, Carter & Hudson Dyck
Terry is and will always be known in the same way to everyone that was fortunate enough to meet him. A calm and gentle man always willing to stop and chat as well as listen to whatever it was you had to say. Our family is fortunate enough to have known him and be influenced not only by his charm, but also the charm that he helped to develop in his children and grandchild(ren). Terry, with his lovely wife Lyn always demonstrated such friendship and love and without knowing it modelled this behaviour to so many of us. We are glad to have been priviledged enough to get to know him and firmly believe that he is smiling at his beautiful family and the true character he left for all of us to see.
Jen Rawson & Family
To, Kim & Family,

Dear Family
My deepest sympathies go out to you. I knew Terry just as a customer at Zehrs for many, many years. He was always so friendly, he was for sure one of my favourite customers. What “old Bolton” was to me. I will miss seeing his smiling face and our friendly conversation.
So very, very sorry for your loss.

I saw Terry whenever he delivered his Bolton parts to us at Fix Auto Woodbridge. He always had a smile, kind words and alot of patience. We would discuss family, children, grandchildren-he loved them so much and was soooooo proud of them.
I did not know him for long but I knew that he was a good man. I was so shocked to discover this morning of his passing and truly sad. My sincerest condolences to his family.

There are very few people we meet in our lifetime that radiate a special inherent charm, which appeals to us all. Quiet and unassuming, but always with that disarming smile, Terry was a man that was easy to like. And, few of us could match his love of family. Our times together were short, but will be remembered with great fondness.

Dear Lyn and Girls,
We were very saddened to hear ot Terry’s premature passing. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to you. Terry was such a treasured employee of “Cedar Hills”. We knew when Terry was there we didn’t have to worry about our parts deliveries. We also knew that Terry didn’t quite like driving the shuttle bus! We are so glad that Terry had his treasured little grand-daughter. We could see how much he loved her and was so proud to be her grand-father. Thank you Terry for being part of our lives.

Lyn and Family,
I was so sorry to hear about the loss of Terry. He was such a wonderful, kind man and such a good sport. I remember him from the Amazing Race as a driver and Waldo. He really was up for anything. He will be greatly missed by the hockey league and everyone who knew him.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Anne Regent
I am so sorry to hear of Terry’s passing, my thoughts and prayers are with your family.
I got to know Terry from weekend mornings at Dick’s Dam Park. He was a kind man, always quick with a treat for his four legged friends whether at the park or in the early morning hours in front of your house.
One thing that I learned about Terry was that he was so very, very proud of his 3 girls, he loved you very much.
Anne, Mazie and ‘the little Lily
Jack and Patty Slater
Lyn, Kim and Kelly; we are thinking of you in our prayers tonight. Terry was a wonderful friend and I have so many memories of our years sharing our lives with our girls on the ice. Those long winter drives and early morning practices… we always managed to make our families a priority in spite of our busy hockey schedules. Terry was a great friend and I have always treasured those times together.
Jack, Patty, Kari, and Devin
Janet Hawkins
Ken Graham just phoned me to inform me of Terry’s passing. Like Ken I am shocked to hear this. Unlike Ken we knew you as close neighbors as well as parents. I just remember how Ian and the girls used to call across the ravine at night to say good night. Both of you were so special to our family and we will always remember that! Both of you supported all the programs at Ellwood and I am very greatful. For me you and Terry were very special people . I loved your girls and I will always remember your family dearly. I am so sorry that our family did not know of his passing because we have been there to support all of you.
Joe Cappabianca
To Lynn, Kim, and Kelly,
Although many years have past since our final days on Downey Drive and an ocean now separates us, you are always in our thoughts.
We just heard the unfortunate news of Terry’s sudden passing from Darren Lugowy. Our heartfelt sympathies and condolonces go out to you and family. We will always remember Terry as a great person and one of the best neighbours we ever had. Keep strong and may God bless you all.

I am so sorry to hear about Terry. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing when my mother informed me of his passing.

My heart goes out to the entire family for your loss but he will always live on in our memories and our hearts.
