Robert Verne Terry

With heavy hearts, we announce the sudden passing of Bob Terry on July 19, 2022 at the age of 76.

He was the beloved husband for almost 52 years to Linda (Clendenning). Lovingly remembered by his son Greg (Val) and grandchildren Alana and Makenna Terry whom he adored.

Bob will be missed by his sister Ginny Terry Schedewitz and in-laws Bill and Linda Clendenning and their families. He was predeceased by his parents Jack and Georgie Terry and his brother-in-law Brian Schedewitz.

Bob taught history for many years, starting in Burlington, followed by Tilbury and finally at Blenheim District High School where he taught and coached for more than 20 years.  

He was a true sportsman both as a player, a coach, and a fan. He played hockey, baseball, curling and golf where he developed many life-long friendships.  He was a former president of both the Golden Acres Curling Club and Blenheim Community Golf Club (now Willow Ridge), where he also worked for a number of years following his retirement from teaching.

A Celebration of Life will be held at Willow Ridge Golf Club on Friday July 29, 2022 from 2:00 – 6:00 p.m.  Words of remembrance will be shared at 4:00.

Memorial Donations may be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, the Chatham Kent Hospice or a charity of your choice.
