Theresa was a lifelong resident of Lawrence where she went to school, married, worked and raised her family. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and a wonderful friend. She will truly be missed and will remain in our hearts forever.
Arrangements are under the direction of the Arthur J. Scott Funeral Home, Lawrence. At her request, there will be no calling hours. A Memorial Mass to celebrate Theresa's life will be held on Monday, February 7th at 2 p.m. at St. Augustine’s Church, 47 Essex Street, Andover. She would not want you to grieve her passing, rather be happy that she is as peace with her Lord, Jesus.
