Tresea Berks Obituary
Tresea was so sick and tired, an angel saw her, came down, folded her in its wings and took her home.
Born in Barnstable, Tresea was raised and educated in Orleans. She graduated from Nauset Regional High School. For many years, she lived in Florida, California, and 34 years in Medfield.
She was a member of the Methodist Church, Rainbow Girls. She enjoyed gardening, drawing and her pet poodles.
Tresea is survived by her husband, Richard H. Berks of Medfield; sons, Jeffrey Berks of Heidelberg, Germany, and Gregory Berks of Edgartown; parents, Robert and Eva Thayer of North Eastham; aunt, Frances Rogers of Orleans; one cousin; one niece; two nephews; and several grandnieces and grandnephews.
Funeral services will be held on Sunday, Nov. 9, at 1:30 p.m., in the Nickerson Funeral Home, 77 Eldredge Park, Orleans. Burial will follow in Orleans Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Hospice & Palliative Care of Cape Cod, 765 Attucks Lane, Hyannis, MA 02601.

Our most heartfelt sympathies to Terry's wonderful family, Dick, Jeff and Greg; I can't believe she is gone, but she is in a better place now and I'm sure she is smiling. She was so proud of you guys and loved you so much, she will always be in your hearts. I so wish we could be there for you, but please know that you are on our mind, and in our hearts and prayers.
