Theresa Jeronis Jeronis Dearden

Ned and Theresa were married for 25 years and were the truest definition of soul mates. They celebrated life together through travel and hobbies, including hiking, biking, trains, archery, photography, gardening, beekeeping and their dogs. Between the two of them their crafts included woodworking, metal, stained glass, soap, jewelry, beer, mead and more. Ned and Theresa made a hobby of finding new hobbies. They lived each day to the fullest and had an unparalleled love for one another.

They are survived by their children, Michael Pettinati and Jake Dearden, along with their four “furbabies” Hardy, Pinky, Baba Looey, and the latest addition Augie Doggie E. Lee.

Theresa is also survived by her mother, Catherine Jeronis; and her siblings Chas Jeronis, Cathy Donovan, Lorraine Tusavitz, and Phil Jeronis.

Ned is also survived by his father and mother, John and Martha Dearden, and his siblings David Dearden and Jenn Vincent.

The family would like to express their thanks for the outpouring of support from friends, including the many through social media that never had the opportunity to meet Ned and Theresa in person. Special thanks to Mid-Atlantic Baking, Ned’s long-time employer, for their continuing support through this difficult time.
