Obituary of Terence Edward Hounsham
Peacefully, at the Niagara Health System’s Welland Site, on Tuesday, July 21, 2020, at the age 77. Dearly loved husband of Doreen Hounsham. Loving father of Wendy (Stephane) Hounsham of St. Catharines, Craig (Christa) Hounsham of Niagara Falls, and Neil (Kalina) Hounsham of Welland. The best Grandad ever to Julien, Arielle, Darwyn and Hudson. Terry will be missed by his surviving brother Stephen of Farnham, England and his nieces and nephews in the UK.Terry grew up in the UK, joining the Royal Army Medical Core to train as a medical officer at the age of 20 and eventually immigrated to Canada where he was a paramedic and then a respiratory technologist. He settled in Welland, Ontario for his last two decades. He was known for being witty and playful. He was always ready with a joke.

Sad to hear. Sincere and deep condolences to Doreen, Craig, Christa, and all the family. Although I didn’t know him well I will always remember his beautiful smile and great sense of humour. Sincerely, Aunt Patti
Great person. I’ll always remember him as a person with great sense of humour and always willing to help when needed.
Terry had such a great sense of humour and was always making people laugh. We have attached a photo of Frank & Terry watching the band play at the park while having their snack. He will be forever in our loving memories. Lorraine & Frank xx
