DINEEN, Terence Stephen - September 24, 1951 – August 15, 2020
It is with profound sadness, that we announce the passing of Terence Stephen Dineen, loving husband, father and grandfather, on August 15, 2020, in Toronto.
Terry was a devoted husband to his wife, of 46 years, Susan.
A loving father to Lauren and son-in-law Romeo Duarte; and proud Papa to his grandchildren, Kingsley and Theodore.
Terry was born in Toronto in 1951, the son of John and Marjorie Dineen.
One of seven children, Terry leaves behind his brothers and sisters, Patrick, Dianne, Susan, Caryl, John and Kelly.
A season ticket holder with the Canadian Opera Company for 22 years, Terry loved going to the opera with his brother Patrick and nephews, Michael and Eric, including attending Wagner's Ring Cycle, that opened Toronto's new opera house in 2006. In 2015, Terry published his first novel, "Suicide Girls".
It was a lifelong ambition to write a novel and a bucket list item he proudly accomplished.
Known for his unique sense of humour, Terry was beloved by all who knew him. He was a funny, intelligent, kind and loving man who will be greatly missed and remembered with incredible love.
A private family celebration will be planned.
As an expression of sympathy, a donation to your favorite animal charity would be greatly appreciated.
