Theresa "Terry" M. Evers

Theresa M. Evers “Terry”, 92, of Neenah, WI, peacefully passed away on May 23, 2025, surrounded by her loving family and loyal dog, Benny, who lay under or beside her bed.

She was born in Little Chute, WI, on the Fox River, to John and Martina Evers

Theresa was married, and with grace and dignity finessed the art of raising 7 beautiful children in Kaukauna while maintaining a career.

She later moved to Neenah where she bought her own home.  All her life she loved gardening, taking walks with her dog, socializing with neighbors and hosting family gatherings.

Theresa is preceded in death by her parents, 4 brothers and 4 sisters, her daughter Nancy and her son Gary. Surviving are her other 5 children and their spouses, Joan & Nancy, Barb & Pat, Kathy, Bob & Donna, and Alan, grandchildren, great grandchildren and her beloved dog, Benny, who will never forget all the love she brought to their lives.

To honor Theresa’s wishes, there will not be a funeral service.  A private family burial and celebration of life will be held at a later date.

“A heart of gold stop beating …. two willing hands at rest – God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best”

Our mom was a true gift to all who knew her – never giving up – always there in good and difficult times.  Mom, you were a guiding light, our north star.

The family would like to extend special thanks to the exceptional caring staff of Theda Care Hospice – Lexie, Briana, Hailey and chaplain Ben.
