Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryTERRY LYNN BEDARD June 4, 1954 - May 18, 2015 It is with immense love and sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved spouse, sister, auntie, cousin and great friend. Terry was predeceased by her loving parents, Edward and Lucille Serkosky, grandparents, numerous aunts and uncles, sister-in-law Arlene, and many very close friends, as well as loving, loyal family pets. Left to mourn her passing are her eternally blessed husband Normand, brother Martin, niece Candace, nephews Marc and Matthew, cousin Cheryl and family, countless dear friends and sad, loving family pets. Terry had a beautiful, sweet spirit that could not be squelched by the many hardships that she faced throughout her lifetime. She endured lots of life's common challenges, and rose above them all. She remained selfless and unconditionally loving to those which she touched. Those of us who were lucky enough to cherish her while she was with us are forever indebted to her. She showed everyone that, even though cancer tragically shortened her life after a long, courageous five year battle, she never complained, never gave up, and followed all of her many doctor's recommendations. She experienced many horrendous treatments that may have extended her lifespan slightly, but made her so terribly ill afterwards, that it would take her weeks to recover. Terry always brightened up the mood by simply smiling or laughing, and for that she will be forever loved and missed. Our hearts will be heavy for many years to come, but she would want nothing less than for all of us to move on and live our lives to the fullest, just as she did. As per Terry's wishes, there will be a small graveside service for family and close friends at a later date. The family and our dear friends would like to extend our warmest, sincerest gratitude to all of the wonderful, caring, compassionate staff and volunteers at Cancer Care Manitoba, Health Sciences Centre, and the St. Boniface Hospital Palliative Care Unit. Terry's fight was prolonged by all of your understanding, support and heartfelt prayers. We will always feel blessed by your selfless actions, and you will always be in our hearts.

I worked at the TD Bank for 19 years and Terry was a customer of mine. She and I shared many stories, laughs and she was always very kind and considerate. One day she saw me opening up mail without a letter opener and the next time she was in the bank, brought me a beautiful pewter letter opener, but as always went the extra and had my name engraved on it! I took it with me to my other job and now in my retirement it sits on my desk! I shall always think of Terry when I use it. - Posted by: Pat Bencharski (working friend) on: Jul 07, 2015

I met Terry many years ago through a mutual friend. I always truly liked Terry and coincidentally worked for many years with her sister-in-law Arlene Serkosky, who was a dear friend of mine. Arlene always spoke so highly of Terry - her kindness, how good she was to Arlene's children etc. The last time I saw Terry was at Arlene's funeral and although it was under such sad circumstances it was nice to be able to sit and chat with her for a few minutes. I am very sorry to hear of Terry's passing and would like to extend sincere condolences to her husband and the rest of her family. - Posted by: Pat Fortescue (Friend from many years ago.) on: Jun 04, 2015

Terry was my friend for 35 years. I will always cherish the memories I have with her. She fought bravely for 5 years with the cancer, no matter how much pain she was in she was so thoughtful,always caring how everyone else was in spite of her own problems. I know God welcomed her with open arms as one of his angels. - Posted by: Karen Appeldoorn (friend) on: May 29, 2015
