Lappin, Terrance J. t.j. Lappin Poet, Playwright, Enigma When Terrance drew his last breath at 8:05am 28 November 2015 he left us all with the great impossibility of describing his impact on our lives. He was precise and definite with his words and yet in this moment, in this space, it seems no words remain. No words capture how complex and strange and remarkable he was. Weeping followed by Silence. Terrance joins his father, Garth Lappin, in the land of light and triumph, as well as many close personal friends; losses he felt deeply throughout the years. He is survived by his wife, Brianna Norstrom of Minneapolis; mother, Violet Lappin of Wayzata; brothers, Gregory (Dona) Lappin and Brian (Gwendolyn) Lappin both of Chaska; father and mother-in-law, Allan and Randi Norstrom of Andover; nieces and nephews, Justin (Megan) Lappin, Michelle (Tim) Day, Melissa (Josh) Ives, Jennifer Lappin and Gregory Lappin; many dear cousins and two terribly bereaved terriers Egg and Monkey. Most notably he leaves behind an infinite number of friends. Please join us in our Farewell to Terrance.
