Terry Krentz
June 4, 1966 - October 6, 2016

It is with very broken hearts that the family announce the sudden and unexpected death of Mr. Terry Krentz 50 years, of Bruno on Thursday, October 6, 2016 near Bruno.  Terry was born on June 4, 1966 in Humboldt the youngest of four sons to Dennis and Rosalie (nee-Turner) Krentz.  Growing up in the area, Terry went to school in Bruno, SK. As a young and adventurous man, he enjoyed riding his snow mobile, dirt bike and racing his Trans Am car down the streets of Bruno and Humboldt.  Terry was always modifying his toys to get the highest performance, which sparked his gifted ability with mechanics.  Following school Terry began working with his dad doing carpentry.  Shortly after, Terry began doing long haul trucking, a job that brought him much satisfaction.  He enjoyed travelling across the country and seeing the beauty in many of our provinces.  Along the way Terry met many great people and gained many lifelong friendships.  When not on the road, Terry would always find a project from painting to flooring or a total make-over.  Terry was always ready and willing to help anyone out from an oil change to some advice.  Terry was a fun loving person who enjoyed visiting and loved to have a good laugh.  He kept everyone on their toes with his jokes and pranks.  Music gave him a sweet smile, especially a collection of the 80’s genre and Merle Haggard to name a few of his favourites.  Terry also was at master chef at the grill on a beautiful day cooking up tasty dishes to share with his family and friends. He also learnt that he had to have the brand of “Kraft” for his speciality dish. Terry worked hard at keeping their yard looking like a park and was very meticulous in having it perfectly manicured.  He was very proud of his beautiful waterfall that he constructed to complete the beauty of his yard. Terry also enjoyed caring for his houseplants; he definitely had a green thumb and was able to have beautiful plants accenting their home.  He also had two special fur buddies Bella and Maddie that he took very good care of and treated them like royalty. Family was always number one, he loved, his parents, siblings and especially his children very, very much and would do anything for them. Four years ago Terry was ecstatic with happiness when his life became complete after he met and married the love of his life Heather Sudderdean on April 21, 2012.  Unfortunately this reunion was shortened due to his passing and he will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by: his wife Heather Krentz; his three children Kyle Krentz (Becki Karasiuk) and her daughter Addison, Taylor Krentz and Samantha Krentz; his step children Christopher Hilker (Danielle Maier) and Shannon Hilker (Mitch Strutt); his three brothers and their families: Doug (Denise) Krentz and daughters Kimberly (Derrick) Ottenbreit and their children Hannah and Courtney and Kendel (Steven) Bodnarchuk and children Cassidy and Emily; Jim (Claude Paradis) Krentz; and Dennis (Danita) Krentz Jr.; father-in-law Paul Sudderdean; brothers-in-law: Tracy (Cathy) Sudderdean and family Candis (Wade) Keough and son Parker, Ashley (Neil) Sudderdean-Keough and children Camryn and Gabrielle; and Nigel (Annette) Sudderdean and family Kendra (Steven) Clements and Jenna (Mitch) Ellsworth. Terry was predeceased by his maternal grandparents Frederick (Sophie) Turner; paternal grandparents Peter (Catherine) Krentz; parents Dennis (June 20, 2015) and Rosalie (April 17, 1999) Krentz and mother-in-law Wendy Sudderdean (Sept 9, 2015); and by many good friends.
