On January 19, 1959, a beautiful baby girl was born to Flora Lyle Mill Evans and William Gordan Evans in Malad, Idaho. Her Mother prayed during her pregnancy for a little baby girl with black curly hair and that is exactly what she got.

Teresa was the fourth child and the second daughter. She had an older sister Pam and two older brothers, Ken, and Tim. In 1963 her father’s lumber yard business dried up so when Teresa was four years old, her family moved to Garden Grove, California where construction jobs were plentiful.

When Teresa got older, she liked to play girls softball. She was the catcher. Teresa attended school in Garden Grove and graduated from Pacifica High School. While at Pacifica she attended a class and learned on the job training to be a bank teller at the Bank of America.

After a few years, she left Bank of America and got a job at State Farm Insurance and ran some of the big machines. She was one of their best employees. Then several years later she opened her own sandwich shop with a friend. They also opened a pizza shop.

Teresa attended a school to learn about computers and graduated at the top of her class. Teresa was living in Crescent City, California at the time of her death. She died on February 28, 2023, in her sleep at the age of 64. Teresa will be greatly missed by her family and friends. You are invited to join us to celebrate her life on Saturday, June 24, 2023, at the Malad Cemetery at 10:00 AM.
