BEVERIDGE,
Terry
J.
Terry J. BEVERIDGE, Ph.D (University of Western Ontario,) Fellow
of the Royal Society of Canada, Fellow of the American Academy
of Microbiology, Professor in the Department of Molecular and
Cellular Biology, University of Guelph.
Dr. Terry BEVERIDGE, a distinguished Canadian scientist, died
September 10 at Groves Memorial Hospital at the age of 62.
His happy spirit will forever be missed by Jan, his wife of 37 years,
his son Braden and his wife Becky and granddaughter Ava, plus
daughter Bree and her fiance Aaron
WALPOLE.
Also by his brother
Ron and his wife Gail (Markham) and brother-in-law Bob and his
wife Anna (Toronto).
He will be fondly remembered by his nieces and nephews Phil,
Chris, Corie, Laura and Alex and their families, plus former
students and colleagues in the worldwide scientific community
and his many devoted Friends.
Terry was a professor of microbiology at the University of Guelph
for almost 30 years, during which time he had a prodigious output
of book chapters and journal articles. As well he edited major
journals in his field and taught at the undergraduate and graduate
levels. He was the recipient of many awards including the Canadian
Council's Killam Prize and the prestigious Steacie Prize, awarded
by the National Research Council to an outstanding scientist
under 40 years old. In 1985, when he received this prize, he
was the first microbiologist to win it. In 2002 he was honoured
to receive a Canada Research Chair in the Structure of Micro-organisms.
He was a leading figure in the emerging science of Geomicrobiology.
The interdisciplinary nature of this work brought together microbiology,
geology, medicine, chemistry and physics with the result that
his laboratory was filled with young inquisitive minds working
in an exciting, growing field.
Beyond his own work Terry was also active in organizations in
Canada and abroad which encouraged collaboration and the growth
of the microbial science in general.
His scientific activities took him around the world for guest
lectures, visiting professorships, consulting work, and scientific
committee activities. But, he always returned enthusiastically
to his home in Elora where, with family and Friends, he heartily
enjoyed the bucolic pleasured of village life. With Jan by his
side, he was a regular stroller along local roads and hiking
trails, one of his many walking sticks always in hand.
Terry was a Renaissance man whose conversation was filled with
ideas of every kind and an ever- present, wonderful sense of
humour. His knowledge of classical and esoteric pop music, science
fiction, flora and fauna, wine, art and books and a host of other
topics enlivened many an evening gathering with Friends.
Above all else, Terry was a kind, empathetic man whose love of
life and joy in all it's wonders, touched and inspired so many.
Friends will be received at the Graham A. Giddy Funeral Home and
Chapel, 37 Church St. in Elora, on Thursday, September 13th 2007
from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. Funeral Service will be conducted by Rev. Kees
VANDERMEY on Friday, September 14th 2007 at 2: 00 p.m. at the
Knox Presbyterian Church, 55 Church St. in Elora, followed by
cremation. For those who wish, donations directed to Groves Memorial
Community Hospital Building Fund would be appreciated. www.grahamgiddyfh.com
