Teresa called Tularosa home her entire life. She graduated Tularosa High School in 1968. A year later she married her husband, Pate. They spent nearly 50 wonderful years together until his passing in 2019.

Teresa was retired from the City of Alamogordo, where she worked for 25 years. She was a loving wife, mother, sister, grandmother, aunt, Nina and friend to all. She had a heart of gold and helped many people throughout her life. People will remember Teresa’s tell-it-like-it-is attitude. Her favorite activity was playing slot machines at the Casino. She will be greatly missed by many.
