The Marshall County Sheriff's Office announced a Marshalltown woman – Teresa Hannam, 55 — was killed by a train at 6:15 a.m. Thursday.
The Marshall County Communications Center was notified by Union Pacific Railroad a train traveling westbound had struck a person along the train tracks in the 2300-mile of Marshalltown Boulevard approximately one-half mile southeast of the Marshall County Landfill.
Marshall County Deputies and EMS were dispatched to the area. A search was conducted by law enforcement and emergency responders where an unresponsive female was discovered. The victim was identified as Hannam and declared deceased on scene.
The Marshall County Sheriff's Office was assisted by the Marshalltown Police Department, Marshalltown Fire Department, Unity Point Ambulance Service, Iowa State Patrol and the Marshall County Medical Examiner.
This incident remains under investigation. However, no foul play is suspected.∼Celebration Life at the Mitchell Family Funeral Home in Marshalltown.
Born on February 20th, 1965, in Marshalltown, she was the daughter of Dennis and Donna (Neel) Anderson. She graduated from the Marshalltown High School in 1983 and later Buena Vista College with a degree in education.
She was a local celebrity to a generation of children who would recognize her as the "reading lady" at the library. Teresa was a children's librarian, a job she was passionate about - combining two loves in life - children and books.
It is doubtful anyone ever saw her without a smile or her contagious laugh. She enjoyed life to the fullest- from Billy Joel and Tom Petty concerts to a 3,000 mile trip in nine days with her brother Greg to visit cousins. She loved traveling, reading, good food, cycling, and trivia games (and she NEVER cheated playing those!). She definitely was a friend to all. Her heart was so full six months ago when grandbabies Henry and Sebastian entered the world just two days apart.
Surviving are her husband Jeff; three children, Alex (Maria) Hannam of Cedar Rapids, Sabrina (Sampson) Songkhamdet of Iowa City, and Jack Hannam of Marshalltown; mother Donna of Marshalltown; siblings, Mark (Shelly) Anderson of Ankeny, Greg Anderson of St. Louis, and Victoria (BJ) Woosley of Beaman; mother-in-law Charlene Hannam of Marshalltown and sisters/brothers-in-laws, Laura (Mike) Fricke of Marshalltown, John Hannam of Marshalltown, Jerry (Maria) Hannam of Denver, Colorado, Jim (Patti) Hannam of Marshalltown, Joe (Peggy) Hannam of Marshalltown, and Beth (Matt) Streeter of Marshalltown; nieces and nephews; and a host of friends and the family at Vaughn's Pub.
In death, she rejoined her father, Dennis, and father-in-law Ed Hannam.
