Summary:
"
Terry
Fox
defined perseverance and hope for a generation of Canadians. Forty years after Terry’s run ended, Forever
Terry
reflects what Terry’s legacy means to us now, and in the future. To mark the 40th anniversary of the Marathon of Hope, Forever
Terry
: A Legacy in Letters recounts the inspiration, dedication, and perseverance that
Terry
Fox
embodied, and gives voice to an icon whose example spoke much louder than his words. Comprising 40 letters from 40 contributors, and edited by Terry’s younger brother Darrell on behalf of the
Fox
family, Forever
Terry
pays tribute to Terry’s legacy, as seen through the eyes of celebrated Canadians ranging from Margaret Atwood, Bobby Orr, Perdita Felicien, Jann Arden, and Christine Sinclair, to those who accompanied
Terry
on his run,
Terry
Fox
Run organizers, participants, supporters, and cancer champions. Appearing alongside never-before-seen photos of their hero, their reflections reveal connections that readers would never have expected, and offer a glimpse into the way goodness and greatness inspire more of the same. Forever
Terry
is a testament to the
influence
one brave man has had on the shape of Canadian dreams, ambitions, and commitment to helping others. Author proceeds support the
Terry
Fox
Foundation, which has raised over $800 million for cancer research. Contributors include Hayley Wickenheiser, Tom Cochrane, Darryl Sittler, Shawn Ashmore, Doug Alward, Nadine Caron, Douglas Coupland, Rick Hansen, Sidney Crosby, Akshay Grover, Lloyd Robertson, Bret Hart, Leslie Scrivener, Isadore Sharp, Wayne Gretzky, Jim Pattison, Catriona Le May Doan, Malindi Elmore, Michael Bublé, Silken Laumann, Steve Nash, Karl Subban, and Marissa Papaconstantinou, among many others."--From publisher.
