Theresa M. Emery, age 83

      Our “Mother Theresa” passed away due to liver complications on December 27, 2012.

      Born on November 9, 1929 and raised in New York, Theresa married Robert Emery and raised three children before they retired in 1977 to Florida.

      In 1988, Theresa’s “Special Girl” granddaughter Kris was born and they bonded for life enjoying scrapbooking, playing “Skippo” for hours until poor health in 2008 brought them to Washington to live with “Aunt Carol.”

      Theresa’s second proudest moment was “graduating” from Hospice and getting her driver’s license back! The “Three Emery Girls” were able to travel and live a 5-year bonus.

      Survivors include son Bill Emery, grandson Alex, both of Austin, Texas; and daughter Carol Emery, and granddaughter Kris, both of Bainbridge Island.

Our family appreciates the loving care of the Martha & Mary facility these past 17 months.
