HOMEN, Teresa De Jesus - It is with great sadness and deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved mother and grandmother, Teresa on March 31, 2021 who joins her beloved husband Jose Homem.
She was born in Santo Antonio, São Miguel, Azores in 1944 and immigrated to Canada in 1974 but always held long-lasting sentiment for the Azores.
Teresa loved going on walks, visiting and spending time with family and friends, laughing, sharing a good joke as well as stories of her past.
She also loved cooking for her family, McDonalds coffee, and being around nature. Family was the most important thing to her.
Teresa was a devoted and beloved mother who was the light of our lives and has brought joy to those who ever came around her. When times were tough she was the one you could count on, listen to, get comfort from, and who always put everyone’s needs first before her own.
She will be greatly missed by her loving children and her five grandchildren. We will all endlessly remember her kindness, sense of humor, honesty, sincerity, intelligence, stories, irresistible laugh, unimaginable strength, as well as the infinite and welcoming love she had for everyone.
She was not only a beautiful person on the outside but also a gorgeous person on the inside. A truly remarkable human being whose generosity, selflessness, and compassion touched every one she knew and whose strength will forever be an inspiration to us all. To us, you will always be our “Cara Linda.”
The service details will be kept private and attendance will be by invite-only.
