Theresa Mary Boginsky, 69, passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones. Born on April 20, 1956, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Theresa was the beloved daughter of Isabelle and George Gibbs. She grew up in the heart of Philadelphia and graduated from Cardinal Dougherty High School, where she formed lifelong friendships and began a journey marked by compassion, resilience, and unwavering devotion to family.
Theresa's life was defined by selflessness. She gave her time, heart, and strength to others, finding joy in caring for those around her. With quiet grace and fierce loyalty, she was the cornerstone of her family.
She is survived by her children, Bernadette Boginsky and David Boginsky (Amy); her stepchildren, Brooke Migliore (Matthew) and Dayna Villa (Christopher); and her cherished grandchildren, Aurora and Dillon, who brought light and laughter to her life. She is also survived by her sister Mary Teal (Larry), and brothers John and Christopher Gibbs (Joan), and was preceded in death by her siblings George Gibbs (Sue) and Isabella Wright (Joe). Theresa also leaves behind a large and loving extended family, grand doggies Josie and Ellie, and a wide circle of friends who will remember her warmth, humor, and unfaltering kindness.
Theresa's legacy lives on in the lives she touched and the love she gave so freely. Her memory will be a guiding light for all who knew her.
A Celebration of Life gathering will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Brett Boyer Foundation https://www.thebrettboyerfoundation.org/, in honor of Theresa's commitment to contributing to others' well-being.
