Teresa was proud of her Lebanese heritage and equally proud to be Canadian. Born in Newfoundland, she moved to Ontario at the age of 19, where she worked hard to build a new life for herself. Through determination and perseverance, she created a life filled with family, love, and wonderful memories.
She loved her family deeply and was devoted to God and The Catholic faith, which remained an important part of her life.
She shared a special love with her husband, Paul. Together, they enjoyed travelling and exploring the world, particularly Europe. They embraced life, enjoyed their adventures together, and truly lived life well.
The family would like to extend their sincere gratitude to the Scarborough Retirement Residence and its wonderful staff for their kindness, compassion, and care.
She will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved her.
