Aug 29, 1964 – Jan 19, 2020
Teresa Marie (Terry) Westcott died suddenly at the age of 55 on Sunday, January 19, 2020 of a massive heart attack. She was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico on August 29, 1964. She moved to Houston, Texas at a young age with her parents and attended St. Francis de Sales Catholic School, St. Agnes High School and St. Thomas University in Houston.
Terry was very talented in many areas and loved animals especially her little Dachshunds, "Hershey" and "JJ". Her other love was travelling - she and her mom have been to many parts of the world. Her favorite was Thailand.
She is survived by her mother, Phyllis Westcott; her brother, Brad Westcott, aunt, Lorraine Sorenson and cousins.
Preceding her in death was her father, Joseph (Denny) Westcott, an aunt and grandparents.
There will be a funeral service on Tuesday, January 28, 2020 at St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church, 8200 Roos, Houston (Sharpstown). Visitation will be at 10:00 a.m. and the Funeral Mass at 11:00 a.m. followed by a reception in the Church Hall. Arrangements have been entrusted to Claire Brothers Funeral Home, 7901 Hillcroft Street, Houston, Texas 77081.
My sister was always a shining light. She lived life to the fullest. Everyone loved her. She had a heart of gold and would give you the shirt off her back. I am glad that she was able to spend a lot of time with our mother before she passed. My mother still remembers the trips they made together with fondness. She was a woman who you just knew that angels walked in her footsteps. She lives on in my memories and is missed deeply.

I was so sorry to hear of Teresas passing. I pray that our Lord will grant Phyllis the necessary peace and strength to overcome her loss. We never know, and would not want to, when our Heavenly Father will call us home and we would never be ready. Prayers and peace to you Phyllis.
