Theresa loved spending time with her family when she wasn't at the casino. Theresa loved spending summer weekends in the backyard with Tyler, Reilly, Nicholas and Vanessa listening to their funny stories about the week's events. She was an avid Patriot's fan.

Theresa is survived by her children Ronald Brodeur and his wife Debbie; Karen Brodeur, Stephen Brodeur and his wife Carol and Janice Leary.

I was heartbroken to read about Terri, I grew up with Steve & the rest of the "Brodeur Kids". Later in life I was her Hairdresser & I had a hard time getting used to calling her Terri & not Mrs. Brodeur, She would come in the Salon & laugh & say " I'm Terri" & laugh more! She loved her shopping & deals, and Casinos but most of all She loved loved her kids! She talked so much about all of you (always smiling) I felt like I knew the grandkids too! She so much missed George, dance away Mr. & Mrs. B!! Sending much love & hugs to all of you
