Teresa Segura Obituary

Teresa Catalina Segura

Teresa Catalina (Vigil) Segura passed away on October 17, 2024, two days after her 93rd birthday. She was embraced by family and friends and the wonderful staff of Casa Palo Duro during her final days. Teresa was born into a large and lively family and graduated from Albuquerque High School in 1950. She married Euriol (Jerry) Segura in 1953 and raised two sons and a daughter, living in the same home for over 66 years. She was a fun Auntie to many nieces, nephews and any friends visiting. She was well known for her candy and cookie drawer. She kept an immaculate home, cleaning daily and favoring Clorox and Lysol. She often used her vacuum as an alarm when her kids had their friends and cousins over, waking them up way too early. Her backyard was filled with birds - especially hummingbirds - and a large family of tortugas.

She is survived by daughter Angela (Dennis) and son Gary (Claudia), 7 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren and 3 sisters. She was preceded in death by her husband Euriol, son Stephen, parents, three brothers and three sisters.

There will be a 9:30 Rosary followed by Catholic Mass of the Resurrection on November 25, 2024 at 10:00am at Queen of Heaven parish, with inurnment to follow at Mt. Calvary cemetery.
