Born July 7, 1954, in North Platte, Nebraska, Teresa was the second of four children to her loving parents, Leon and Tess (Kennedy) Forsgren. She shared her birthday with her grandmother, Teresa Kennedy, and her uncle, Vess Kennedy.
In 1959 the family moved to Omaha, Nebraska, where she spent the rest of her life. Growing up, Teresa enjoyed time at the neighborhood pool, piano lessons and visiting her Grandma and Grandpa Forsgren's farm in Pisgah, Iowa on the weekends. During high school she was a Red Cross Candy Striper.
After graduating in 1973 from Westside High School, Teresa went to work for Mutual of Omaha. She had an apartment near Mutual that she shared with her beloved cat, Ricki. At age 27, she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. She continued working at Mutual until taking disability and soon after entered a care facility.
Over the years, Teresa kept busy in her care facility by being an avid reader, assembled an untold number of puzzles, developed ceramic skills, and played and assisted with Bingo.
She loved telling tall tales with her Liars Club and played cards with her Kings Corner group. She would really light up when her nieces or nephews paid a visit. On Tuesday. October 26, 2021, Teresa made her final journey to meet the Lord.
