Teresa Ann Humphrey, age 61, wife of Douglas Keith Humphrey unexpectedly passed away on Monday, October 12 at Mission Hospital in Mission Viejo, CA. She was born on January 15th, 1959, to Maurice and Barbara (Whitlinger) Huss. She would have celebrated 34 years of marriage on October 18th. She attended Pomona Catholic Girls High School class of 1973 and got her college degree from California State University, Northridge class of 1984. She has worked for the last 36 years as a physical therapist.
She filled her life with family and friends and was constantly in her craft room creating beautiful presents for everyone. She always left her personal touch on everything. You felt the passion in her gifts she gave you from the moment you laid your eyes and hands on them. She always greeted you with a smile that lit up the room, which was contagious, and gave you a bear hug that instantly made you feel loved. She treasured the holidays as it was a time to get together with family and make memories. She always took care of the turkey and then some and made the best pies, oh those pies and her desserts are indescribable. Her holiday cookies were something she would get started on weeks in advance and made sure that everyone had more than enough. She enjoyed watching sports, especially her Los Angeles Angels and Anaheim Ducks and often recorded the games and would find out the score and then watch them. She would say her perfect day consisted of spending its entirety down at the beach with her toes in the sand and a La Croix in her hand. Her pride and joy were her children until her grandson came into the picture and then her life was all about him. It’s nearly impossible to sum up who Teresa was in words because there are truly no words to describe the incredible person she was.
Teresa is survived by her mother Barbara Huss, her husband Douglas Humphrey, her sister and brother-in-law Mary and Mike Pasqua, sister and brother – in-law Julie and Brad Garner, brother and sister in law – Dave and Marissa Huss, brother Mark Huss, sister and brother in law Lisa and Rodger Lawler and brother Andrew Huss; sister in law and brother in law Debbie and Steve Orecchio and sister in law Diane Humphrey; her daughter and son-in-law Alyssa and Max Helm and grandson Owen Helm, and her daughter Keely Humphrey. She loved and left her mark on all of these people and many more.
