He was predeceased by his Mom (Margaret Plouffe), his Dad (Rueben Moore), grandparents
(Bertha and Bon Plouffe), mother and father in law (Joyce and Frank Parsonage), brother in law
Art Thiessen and many special aunts and uncles.
Terry was born on October 6, 1942 in Fort Garry and that is where he lived his entire life.
He worked for Manitoba Hydro for 35 years, retiring in 1997.
Terry was a very talented athlete, loved all sports, but his passion was baseball and hockey in
his younger years. Played in the 1969 Summer Games and one highlight for Terry was signing
with the Toronto Maple Leafs and St Louis Cardinals in the same year. He was inducted into the
Manitoba Baseball Hall of Fame, as a team member for the Transcona Atomics in 2001 and as
a player in 2002.
Later years it was curling and golf. He played at the Pembina Curling Club and won many
championships and became a member at the Carman Golf Club after his retirement.
He belonged to the Fort Garry Legion for 45 years, volunteering his time and served as the
Entertainment Chair for a few years and always had activities going on and also enjoyed a beer
or two!!
For being known as a tough guy, he was a real softie when it came to our dog, Punkie, who he
loved and enjoyed for 19 years.
Terry and Val enjoyed many memorable trips to Hawaii, Cuba, Arizona, Florida, Texas and
California and so many fun trips to Ontario visiting and enjoying his girls and grandchildren.
Also, loved traveling in our motorhome and always seemed to know where all the casinos were
to stop along the way. Loved trips to Grand Forks, Fargo and the Shooting Star Casino.
Terry, you were one of a kind and will be forever in our hearts and deeply missed by so many.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, January 14th at 2:00 pm at Thomson in the Park,
1291 McGillivray Blvd with a private family interment held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his memory to the Manitoba Underdogs Rescue
