Theresa was a homemaker for many years, and then in the 1960's after the death of her husband, she began a career in sales working in Summit, Elizabeth and Edison. She relocated to Edison, Chatham Township and Union through the years to be closer to her children, and has resided in Edison for the past 6 years. She was a longtime parishioner of St. Joseph's church and enjoyed retreats at St. Paul's Abbey in Newton, crocheting and needlework. She was also an avid reader and enjoyed traveling and the NY Mets, but above all spending time with her family.
