She graduated from Cradock High School in Portsmouth and received a BS degree in Home Economics from Norfolk State University. She worked as the Administrator at the Jerusalem UHC Day Care for four years. Beginning in 1990, Teresa taught Family and Consumer Science in the Public School System in Portsmouth, Cumberland, and Virginia Beach for over twenty years. She retired from teaching in 2011 due to her health. Teresa accepted Jesus Christ while attending New Hope Baptist Church in Chesapeake. Later, she joined Jerusalem Holy Church in Chesapeake where she served on the Female and Joint Usher Boards.
A viewing will be held on August 25, from 5 pm to 7 pm here at Steele-Bullock Funeral Home located at 3950 Turnpike Rd Portsmouth, VA 23701, followed by a homegoing service at 11 am, August 26, 2023, at Jerusalem United Holy Church, 1602 Hoover Ave. in Chesapeake Elder Clarence Fontenot Jr will be officiating.
My classroom was next to Teresa's at Great Neck Middle. I was her mentor teacher when she first started. The best part our rooms were next door. She was such a kind, caring lady. I was sad when she left us, but understood why. My prayers go out to her family.
