In Loving Memory of Theresa M. (Thomas) Reynolds who unexpectedly passed on May 3rd, 2025, at the age of 93.

Terry was a loving soul whose warmth touched everyone she met. A proud mother, she was predeceased by her, son Robert Bachand, grandson Leland, son Stephen Bachand, and daughter Donna Donnelly. She was mother-in-law to David D. Donnelly, who remains a part of her family. She is survived by her devoted children: Cheryl Alves (and her late husband Steve Alves), MarianneDonnelly and her husband David R. Donnelly, and Raymond Bachand and his wife Penny Bachand. She also leaves behind her sister Kathy Nemer, along with many adoring grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and her beloved cat, Midnight.

Theresa was the kind of person who always expressed her excitement to see you. She was everyone's biggest fan and didn't leave any "I love you's" unsaid. She consistently shared how proud she was of her family, offering kind words to all and keeping every family member—including the pets—in her daily prayers.

Her days began and ended with devoted prayer, and she had a genuine love for both people and animals. She was known for striking up conversations with strangers and offering hugs and kisses freely.

Terry loved to dance, and in her younger years she even taught Arabic belly dancing. Despite her aches and pains, she never lost her energy to keep moving.

No matter where she lived, Theresa's home was a reflection of her spirit—always changing and rearranging with her keen eye for interior decorating, she made each home cozy with warmth and care.

She enjoyed watching sports—especially baseball and football—and never missed a chance to wear her Red Sox T-shirt and Patriots earrings.

Beautiful on the inside and out, Theresa's legacy is one of love and unwavering support. She will be remembered for her friendly spirit and her sincere desire for the well-being and happiness of everyone she knew.
