Teresa Higgins Obituary
Resident of San Mateo
Terry Higgins died suddenly at her home on November 30, 2011. She will be missed by her loving family.
Terry was born in Burlingame on January 3rd, 1957. She spent the majority of her life in San Mateo, where she attended Aragon High School, graduating in 1975. Terry enjoyed writing, working for her husband, watching her children grow and her many pets she had throughout her life, which included a Mynah Bird. But most of all, she adored her family who will miss her greatly.
Her parents, Darlene and David Button, precede her in death. She is survived by her loving husband, Walter, her children Alexandra, David, Kayla, Sam and Rylie and her daughter-in-law Jennifer and her granddaughter Avery. She is also survived by her brothers Dan and Dave and sister-in-laws Jamie and Lisa.
A memorial service for Terry will be held Monday, December 5, at 11:30 AM at The Neptune Society of Northern California, 1645 El Camino Real Belmont CA. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the charity of your choice.
