PARADIS, Terry "Chico"

Posted

Of Hornepayne, Ontario formally from Sault Ste. Marie.
Taken so tragically while working on the rails in Hillsport. Beloved soul mate of
Karen Johnson of Hornepayne. Very special Father and best friend of Brianna Best
Paradis. Dearest son of the late Jean Paul and Yvette Paradis. Youngest brother of
Brenda Willoughby (Bill), Denise Sadowski (Fred), the late Rejeanne Halonen, Helene
Barnes (Albert), Reg (Debbie), Claude and Bob (Debbie) Paradis. It is with heavy
hearts his many nieces and nephews will miss him terribly. Terry was employed with
CN and formally A.C.R. for many years. He loved his job and especially his CN
family, particularly his track gangs from all over. "Chico" a name given to Terry by
the track gang was well known from Sault Ste. Marie up the rail line to Hearst,
Ontario. Terry will now take his final train ride to heaven to be reunited with his
Mom, Dad and sister. Those who ever knew or just met Terry will have one funny story
or another to tell. He was so full of adventure and mystery. He was "unique" and so
full of life. His passions were hunting and fishing and he will be missed by those
friends who had the opportunity to share those moments with him. He absolutely
adored his daughter and loved their special times together, they shared a wonderful
life. After transferring to Hornepayne, Terry met and fell in love with his life
partner Karen who will miss him beyond words. Terry was so loved by his brothers and
sisters who took him into their arms and cared for him after the passing of his
parents. Terry take all our love and memories and put them in a box and keep them
with you always. Friends may call at the Arthur Funeral Home & Cremation Centre on
