Theresa Anne Donnelly, a cherished daughter, sister, wife, mother, and grandmother, passed away peacefully on July 3rd, 2025 in the loving presence of her beloved husband, Bob. Her vibrant spirit and warm heart touched countless lives, and she will be deeply missed.
Born the third of five children to the Davey family, Theresa grew up alongside her siblings Timothy, Mary, and Thomas, all of whom survive her with their spouses Susan, Steven, and Cathy. She was predeceased by her brother, Matthew.
Theresa spent many years in Sunnyvale, California, where she dedicated herself to raising her four children: Sean, Wendy, Christine, and Dominic. She cherished her children and their spouses, Shannon, Zach, and Kristin, profoundly. During her time in California, Theresa held various roles, ultimately becoming a self-taught contract manager. Her sharp attention to detail and dedication were evident in her early mornings, rising to support East Coast clients. Beyond her professional acumen, Theresa was renowned for her vibrant personality and remarkable ability to connect with anyone, leaving a lasting impression on nearly everyone she met.
Later in life, Theresa found the love of her life, Bob. They shared eighteen years together in New Jersey before retiring to a serene setting along the Susquehanna River in New York State. There, they enjoyed another seven blissful years, immersed in the tranquility of nature. Theresa found immense joy in observing wildlife and savored the peacefulness of the forests and the river.
Theresa's legacy extends to her adored family. She is survived by her stepchildren Justin and Lindsy, and their spouses Michelle and Adam. She was the proud grandmother of ten grandchildren: Shelby, Kelsey, Frankie, Tony, Jack, Nick, Chloe, Josh, Mason, and Ella. She would gleefully share with anyone and everyone that she had ten grandchildren, a testament to her immense love and pride.
