Obituary

Teresa Marjorie Adams

It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Teresa Marjorie Adams on July 9, 2026, at the Red Deer Regional Hospital, at the age of 86.

Teresa was born on June 4, 1940, in Egham, Surrey, England. After completing advanced secretarial studies, she joined the Royal Air Force in 1959 and went on to enjoy a distinguished 33-year career in Civil Service, working with the Air Force, Army, Navy and RCMP.

In 1960, Teresa met the love of her life, Wayne Adams, while working at a local theatre. They were married on December 2,1961 and shared more than 64 years together.

Teresa is lovingly remembered by her husband Wayne Adams, her three sons Tim Adams, Tod (Ann) Adams, Trevor (Arlene) Adams. Her Grandchildren Jesse and Racheal. Her Brother Brian (Val) Adams, and numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.

Teresa was predeceased by her parents and grandparents.

Teresa will be remembered for her spicy personality, no-nonsense attitude, wonderful sense of humor, and her love of sports and dogs. No matter where life took her, Teresa faithfully attended church every Sunday. It was through her lifelong faith that she developed her deep love of gospel music, which remained a source of comfort and joy throughout her life. She lived a life of dedication to her family, her career, and the people she loved.

The family extended their heartfelt thanks to the doctors, nurses and staff at the Red Deer Regional Hospital for the compassionate care Teresa received.

We are neighbours who enjoyed chatting while walking our pets. Always a smile and wave on their way to exercise. Terry told me about her daily exercising and kick boxing. Her battle with Parkinson’s was not going to stop her.
