Love, Service and New Beginnings

Some moments deserve more than a quick congratulation in the hallway. They deserve to be celebrated, out loud, together, as a community. 

This week at Landing Strong, we are honoured to share joyful news: two of our own, Terry Biles and Gillian Ring, were married. And what a privilege it is to witness love taking root so fully and so beautifully. 

As many of you know, Terry is a Veteran who served in Afghanistan. Like so many who have carried the weight of service, he has also carried the invisible impacts that can follow. Terry’s journey has not been simple, and it certainly hasn’t been linear; but it has been deeply human. He is a living, breathing example of what it means to keep showing up. To fight your way back into health. To rebuild a life that includes not only strength, but tenderness. Not only survival, but connection. 

At Landing Strong, we often speak about healing in terms of community, purpose, and belonging. Terry’s story reflects that truth. Despite the darkness he has faced, he has found his way back into family, community, and love…and now, into a new chapter alongside Gillian. 

Please join us in sending heartfelt congratulations and warm wishes to this beautiful couple. May their marriage be filled with laughter, resilience, partnership, and peace as they step forward into the next stage of their life journey together.

Warmly,

Belinda Seagram, Ph.D., R. Psych.
