Terrance (Terry) Bertram Stocks

November 5, 1956 - October 4, 2003

Terry passed away suddenly up in the mountains chasing his dream. He was born in Kindersley, Saskatchewan and moved to Kamloops when he was five years old. While growing up in Kamloops, Terry was involved in Boy Scouts and exploring the outdoors. He had an inventive mind that kept him curious, eager to learn and an educator of his many talents, including the basic knowledge of the environment, culture, the conservation of wildlife and he worked closely with the native community. Terry worked at Weyerhaeuser for almost 30 years. He was an avid hunter, fisherman, trapper, guide outfitter and a master of all trades, as well as a loving and devoted husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend. He spent his spare time in the outdoors doing things he loved, beside the people he loved.

Survived by his soul mate and wife, Kathy; daughters, Laurie (Joshua), Diana (Wayne) and Sara (Tyler); his parents, Donald and Nora; his six siblings, Trevor (Terri), Gloria, Jeanne, Susan (Brian), Donna (Joe) and Donald Jr., as well as by many relatives and friends from around the province.

Beverly Adele Woolley
July 5, 1958 - September 30, 2003

After a long and brave battle with cancer, Beverly is now peacefully at rest and with her Father and Lord. Bev leaves knowing that her treasured daughters, Jordan, Alexandra and Morganne are in the safe hands of her beloved husband of 13 years, Bob. As a valued member and integral part of a large, loving family, Beverly will always be cherished as daughter of Leonard and Solveig Bergen, sister to: Rodney, Gary, Glenn; and niece, cousin, and aunt to many. To them all, she was loved.

Beverly was convinced that her life remained firmly in the hands of her Heavenly Father whom she referred to affectionately as 'Dad'. Out of this conviction flowed a profound peace, a lifelong love of music and kids, her immense satisfaction of being a mother and wife, and a gentle joyful love of family and friends. Beverly joyfully loved all who came her way. As a loving wife, family member, teacher, and friend - each of us has felt gifted by her joy and smile.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs."

Thank you Yahna, Jill, Kelly, Lynn, Angela, Joanna, Elaine and all those who took care of our home this year.

Flowers are gratefully declined. Instead, donations towards to the Langley Hospice Society's "Comfort Fund" or, as suggested by the swim club, to an educational trust fund for Beverly's daughters, would be most gratefully appreciated.

A Memorial Service for Beverly will be held on Saturday, October 11, 2003, at 1:00 p.m., at Bible Fellowship, located at 15100 - 66A Avenue, Surrey, with Reverend Kirk Duncan presiding.
