Theresa was a very hard-working strong woman who raised her three children independently. She was a successful business owner; she loved the outdoors and farm life. She loves loud music, her boots and a good porch swing. She loved making homemade cooked meals including her highly demanded beef stew. Spending time with her children and grandchildren was the highlight of her life. She loved all her family including her many nieces and nephews. Despite fighting a long battle with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy she remained positive, strong willed any always had a double thumbs up and a soft whisper of “I’m fine”. She will be missed deeply by her family, her strength and fighting spirit will live on with us forever.

Flowers are acceptable, however the family request potted type plants please or donations can be made in Theresa memory to CurePSP
