CURRIE, Terence MacDonald

(March 12, 1939 – June 27, 2019)

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Terry, peacefully, in Orchard View by the Mississippi, Almonte, ON. Son of the late Ned and Doris (née Hutchison) Currie, predeceased by his darling wife, Shirley (née Jones). He will be greatly missed by his brother Pat (Joan) and sister Jean, as well as his sons Bill (Rosina) and Dan (Aamina), and daughters Maureen (Dave) and Michelle (Alejandro), and his grandchildren, who all made him proud.  Sadly missed by his companion, Lucille Hillier-Kean, as well as his nephews and niece, and his many friends and neighbours.  Born in Cranbrook, B.C., Terry spent most of his life happily on the Currie homestead near Panmure, ON.   As a young man he enjoyed baseball and hunting.  He graduated from SS#3, a one-room schoolhouse on the 3rd Line, to attend Arnprior DHS, and from there to St. Patrick’s College in Ottawa.  He began his career teaching in Chesley, Ontario, but soon returned to the Valley to teach French at Almonte DHS.  There he made life-long friends, and had many happy years teaching and enthusiastically coaching football.  That was also where he met a young fellow teacher, Shirley, whom he pursued until she happily agreed to marry.  As a ‘hobby’ farmer, Terry spent many hours on the tractor, with a chainsaw, and repairing fences.  His retirement from teaching did not mean a retirement from football or farming, and he spent many further seasons coaching his beloved Thunderbolts, as well as briefer stints with the Arnprior Redmen and West Carleton Wolverines.  He helped found Almonte Celtfest and Almonte Alumni to support the school.  Always full of life, Terry loved to dance, especially Ottawa Valley square dancing, and was an inveterate traveler who was always planning his next trip.  Terry had a life-long passion for telling the story of the people of the Ottawa Valley.  He was awarded the Canada 125 medal for his history of St. Peter Celestine’s church in Pakenham, Rock of Faith.  He earned his M.A. in history from U. of Ottawa in 2005; the result of his studies was the book The Ottawa Valley’s Great Fire of 1870.  Terry became a regular member of the Fitzroy Township Historical Society, serving as President and Past President.  He often gave tours of St. Peter Celestine’s.

Friends may pay their respects at

SADLER, Lawrence Earl

(Co-Founder and life member of the Madawaska Pleasure Riders)

Earl passed away peacefully in the early hours of July 20, 2019 with his loving wife Patricia (Burns) by his side.  He leaves to mourn his most loved and respected sister-in-law Susan (Mervin) McIntyre, Sister Muriel (late George) Currie, brothers Arthur (Phyllis) and Stuart (Mary-Anne).  Father of Judith (Dick) Howey, Shelley, Phillip, and John Sadler. Much loved grandfather to Karen (Andrew) Valley, Ron (Anna) Ingram, Ryan (Haidyn) Smith, Lindsy (Justin) Smith, Travis and Zac Sadler, and great-granddaughter Ashley Ingram.

Earl will be missed by his many friends and will live on in the memories shared. He will always be remembered for his love of life and the many jokes he played on unsuspecting friends and family.  Known to many as simply the Mule Man. Earl often remarked he had the best life, retiring early and able to do what he loved playing with horses and mules, spending time with friends, camping, riding and driving. He had two things on his bucket list, attending Bishop Mule Days in California and riding a mule in the Grand Canyon, both of which he accomplished. He also leaves behind his much-loved and talked about dog Skipper2. Some words that have been used to describe Earl are as follow: deliberate or stubborn, teacher, smartass, horseman, friend, mentor, passionate, wry sense of humor, storyteller, authentic, and memorable.

A very huge thank you goes out to all who cared for Earl at the Bonnechere Manor, Dr. Andrea Dipaolo and the wonderful drivers of the Sunshine Coach. Donations to the Bonnechere Manor Renfrew or Sunshine Coach Renfrew would by appreciated. Earl’s final care has been entrusted to the Pilon Family Funeral Home and Chapel Ltd., 50 John Street North, Arnprior. Private family interment White Lake Community Cemetery.
