Brian Christopher McHan posted a condolence
Friday, December 4, 2020
My name is Brian McHan and I was a cousin to Theresa. After my parents divorce I saw little of my North Carolina family and was pleasantly surprised when Therese became my pen-pal. She helped me keep up with the family and usually added a biblical verse showing how devout of a Christian she was. The letters made my day through many a dark hour. I am sorry I never met Marvin's kids, and I was pleased to find that they seemed to be doing well. Don't cry now. God has called her home. Her burdens are lifted at last.

Big beautiful eyes, big beautiful smile, and always a big beautiful attitude to match is how I would describe Theresa. Any time I saw this young lady from childhood to adulthood she was warm, welcoming, and positive no matter what life dealt her. I know, as hard as it is to believe, that her immediate family has gone before her, but I know other family members and friends will miss her greatly. My prayers will be with you.
Sincerely,
Connie Allen

Ms. Therese was the absolute sweetest person and she always had a smile on her face. I use to go to Church with her and always looked forward to seeing her sweet smile and hearing her sing. Her love for the lord was genuine and showed in how she treated others and let her light shine. I will sorely miss seeing her at Wal-Mart. My thoughts and prayers are with her family

Therese was genuine, sincere and always kind. I imagine that bright smile as she rests in the arms of Jesus. She wants the rest of us to know Him, too.

What a lovely lady! You could always count on her glorious smile, no matter what she was dealing with. The world is a little dimmer today without her gentle soul. Praying that her sparkle lives on with all those who knew and loved her.

I had the absolute privilege to have worked with Therese for many years at Walmart. She was one of the kindest, happiest and sweetest people I have known. If ever there was an angel walking this earth it would be her. I know she is rejoicing with our Heavenly Father.
