Obituary of Terry Conway

After a long and hard-fought battle with cancer, Terry passed away at the Sault Area Hospital on Friday, December 30, 2022, at the age of 71. Loving dad and best friend to Amy (Mike Zodrow) and John (Minttu Kamula) and will be fondly remembered by their mother, Debbie. Proud grandfather to Joshua Grosjean. Son of the late Raymond and Teresa Conway. Brother of Susan (Ernie), Ray (Marcy), late Leo, Rod (Leslie), late Karen (Bill), and Kathy (Dave).

Born and raised in Sault Ste. Marie, in his younger days, Terry was a talented hockey player. This is where he earned his nickname, Sally. Many people will remember him from the nearly 40 years he spent working at Rona Cashway. He was a friend to many and loved by all who knew him. Some of his best memories are from the time spent with friends and family at Mile 58 Trout Lake where he enjoyed relaxing and playing his guitar. He was a kind, dedicated, and loving father who will be greatly missed.

The family wishes to thank Dr. Aziz, Dr. Voutsadakis, Dr. Wilson, Dr. Apostle, Dr. Fera, and all the staff on 3B, especially nurse Pete and PSW Sonia for all the care and compassion they provided. Special thanks to Carly and Madelene for taking extra time to care for Terry and to Buzz and Sharon for all the love and support they provided.
