It is with broken hearts that we, the family of Terry Wallace Binder announce his passing on Oct. 2, 2010, at the Glace Bay Hospital, in the arms of his loving family.
Born in Glace Bay, he was the son of the late John and Christina (McInnis) Binder and was a member of St. Leo's Church in Glace Bay.
During his lifetime, he was employed with Devco for 38 years, enjoying his membership in both the Colliery and Commercial League bowling. He also enjoyed playing pool and a good game of 45s. He was an avid follower of the Leafs and Blue Jays. Terry was also a lifetime member of the Glace Bay Pensioners where he served as secretary treasurer. Terry was a quiet man of very few words who will be truly remembered as a 'Total Family Man.'

We weren't ready, but heaven couldn't wait.
A battle you fought until the end.
Our hearts now flooded with sorrow and pain,
But in time replaced with cherished memories within.
Never to be forgotten, forever missed.
