Teresa Ann Moreau

PRESQUE ISLE: On March 6, 2024, Teresa, 84, peacefully and unexpectedly passed at home. She was born June 12, 1939 to Henry Donovan & Violet Cronkite Mailman. Teresa graduated from Washburn District High School in 1956. She met Thomas Thibodeau and they were married in 1958 in Virginia and raised their children, Thomas, Jr. & Tracie in Presque Isle. Teresa was employed for a short time for the telephone company and then the rest of her working career (54 years) at Harding's Law Office. She was a devoted member of St. Mary's Catholic Church where she connected with her husband, Arthur Moreau. Teresa was the most generous, loving mother, grandmother, great grandmother, wife, sister, aunt and friend. She never judged anyone and had a heart of gold. Teresa lived for her family, dancing and music. In her earlier years, her and Tom used to square and line dancing every weekend at places like Spruce Haven and Dean's Motor Lodge at Portage Lake where they had a camp since the mid-1970's. She has spent many hours traveling across the border to Canada to dance and listen to music as well as Fort Fairfield VFW, and Campers Paradise in Westfield. Teresa and her husband Arthur also have been the organizers of weekly music for seniors at the Sargent Family Community Center for years.
Teresa is survived by her husband Arthur Moreau of 9 years, One daughter Tracie & Jerry Morris and a daughter-in-law Lori Thibodeau, siblings; Henry Donovan, Jeremiah Donovan, Daniel & Nancy Donovan, Dolores & Bruce Roope, six grandchildren, Jill & Jeff Willette, Kelly & Jay Lamoreau, Jonathan & Lucas Higgins and Taylor & Erica, five great-grandsons, Noah & Jase Willette, Jack & Tucker Lamoreau & Aiden Higgins. She had many special friends and acquaintances. Teresa was predeceased by her parents, sisters, Dolly & Diane Donovan, a brother Paul Donovan, husband, Thomas Thibodeau, Sr. and her son, Thomas Thibodeau, Jr.
Teresa will be remembered for her crazy "tricks" she gave out on Halloween as well as her infectious smile, laugh and personality.
