Terrance John Wilgenhof

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Terrance “Terry” John Wilgenhof at 81 years old after a long battle with cancer. Terry was born September 21st, 1945,and passed quietly, peacefully and surrounded by family on October 14th, 2026, at the Prince George Rotary Hospice House. Terry was predeceased by his parents Jon and Muriel Wilgenhof; his sister Sylvia Jaggers and daughter Heather Anne Wilgenhof. He is survived by his wife of forty-seven years Lynn Wilgenhof; his daughter Kristen McDonald and her husband Josh and his only grandchild, Lorelei. He will be remembered by his brother-in-law Dave Jaggers; nieces Sherrie Waning and Charlene (Tina) Jaggers; nephews Ray (Pauline) and Terry (Tracy) Jaggers.

Terry spent ten years sailing the world in the navy before venturing north to work in the forest industry. Terry worked for many years as a millwright before ending his career as a saw filer with Canfor’s Rustad Sawmill.

He initially retired to Vancouver Island where he was raised but returned to Prince George to be closer to his daughter and her family. Terry loved to golf and spent many happy hours of his retirement on the golf course with his friend Randy and his granddaughter.

Terry did not want a Funeral or Celebration of Life. His ashes will be spread on Vancouver Island next summer. Thank you to all of the kind nurses, RT’s, OT’s and doctors at UHNBC and the Hospice House who made his final days more comfortable.
