Theresa Poffenberger Obituary
Ms. Theresa Marie Wampler Poffenberger, 64, of Hagerstown, died suddenly early Wednesday, January 29, 2025, in Hagerstown.
Born March 3, 1960, in Washington, District of Columbia, she was a daughter of Marie Bernadette Beavers Wampler of Hagerstown, and the late William Freeman Wampler
Theresa had worked with for the Herald Mail for nearly 30 years as a contract hauler. Additionally, she had worked with Cumberland Valley Veterinary Clinic, Krispy Kreme Donuts and Wesel Blvd AC&T, all of Hagerstown. She was also a housekeeper and care giver for the elderly and disabled.
Theresa was baptized into the Catholic Faith.
She was devoted to animals; an attribute that never wavered even as her health became poor. Theresa actively fed stray cat colonies around Washington County, and participated in trap-neuter-release programs to help quell the populations.
Surviving, besides her mother, are her children Rachael Poffenberger of Friendship, Stacey Keener of Mercersburg, Pennsylvania, and Keller Poffenberger; four grandchildren; and siblings, Dianna, Bea and Frank Wampler, all of Hagerstown; as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
The Andrew K. Coffman Funeral Home, Hagerstown, assisted the family with arrangements. Private services were at the convenience of the family.
