Teresa Stano Obituary
Teresa Stano was a loving daughter and sister whose deep faith and unwavering strength inspired all who knew her. Her love for the Lord guided her through life's challenges, and her ability to overcome every obstacle was a true testament to her spirit.
Teresa found joy in life's simple pleasures-- she loved to draw, color, and sing Christmas carols, especially during her favorite time of the year. Her creativity and warmth brought light and laughter to everyone around her.
She was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Jake and Peggy Stano. Teresa is survived by her devoted sisters, Vickie Rainey (Lonnie) and Karen Bailey (Terry); and many other family members and friends who will forever cherish her memory.
Her strength, faith, love, and fearlessness will remain in the hearts of all who were blessed to know her
