Teri Piechocki Obituary
Teri E. Piechocki of Carmel, IN, passed away on April 29, 2025, at the age of 66. She was born at St. Mary Mercy Hospital in Gary, IN, on September 29, 1958, to parents, David and Rosemary (Horan) Wilson.
Teri graduated from the Purdue School of Pharmacy in 1981 and worked as a pharmacist for nearly 20 years before pursuing another dream. She went back to school and earned her law degree from Valparaiso University in 2001, then passed the Florida Bar shortly after. She spent the next chapter of her career as a Senior Staff Attorney at the Fifth District Court of Appeals in Daytona Beach, FL where she enjoyed looking out her office window at views of the water and fire station that was across the street where "there was always something exciting going on".In 2010, Teri moved to Carmel, Indiana, and returned to pharmacy, working at Riley Children’s Hospital, Express Scripts, and IU North Hospital.
Teri loved swimming, yoga, traveling, and getting lost in a good book—but nothing made her happier than time with her 4 grandchildren. She had a soft spot for blueberry pancakes (always with a side of extra bacon) and rarely missed reading her morning newspaper. Above all, Teri will be remembered for her generous spirit and deep compassion, always seeking opportunities to spread kindness and uplift those around her (usually with a box of donuts).
Teri married Walter Piechocki on August 16, 1980, and he preceded her in passing. She is survived by her children, Katherine (Jessica) Piechocki (grandson Connor and granddaughter Sloane), David (Marina) Piechocki (2 grandchildren) and her siblings Lori (John) Brett, and Scott (Lisa) Wilson.
She was preceded in death by her parents, David and Rosemary Wilson and her sister Lisa Wilson.
In Lieu of flowers memorial donations may be made in Teri’s honor to St. Jude’s’s Children’s Hospital.
A Visitation will be held from 12pm until 2pm, May 17, 2025, at Flanner Buchanan - Carmel (325 E. Carmel Dr. Carmel, IN). A funeral service will be held following the visitation at 2pm.
