In Loving Memory of Teresita N. Rivera

Beloved Mother, Grandmother, Nurse, and Friend

July 27th, 1951 - June 18th, 2025

With heavy hearts and deep love, we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Teresita N. Rivera, a woman whose life was a beacon of compassion, strength, and unwavering love. She left this world peacefully, surrounded by those who cherished her, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, service, and a family who will forever hold her close in their hearts.

Teresita was a devoted mother to her two daughters, Pia and Ella, who were the source of her greatest pride. Her love extended beyond her children to her treasured grandchildren, with whom she shared her warmth, her wisdom, and her signature gentle humor. She delighted in being a grandmother—nurturing, playful, and ever-present with open arms and an open heart.

A gifted and compassionate nurse, Teresita dedicated her life to caring for others. Her healing touch and calm presence brought comfort to countless patients and families, and her colleagues remember her as a pillar of strength, grace, and integrity. Her career was more than a profession—it was a calling, one that reflected her generous spirit and her deep empathy for the human experience.

To her friends and extended family, Teresita was a confidante, a source of comfort, and a quiet force of good. As an aunt, she was loving and involved; as a friend, loyal and true. Her ability to listen without judgment, to offer help without hesitation, and to love without condition touched everyone lucky enough to know her.

Teresita lived a life of purpose, humility, and grace. Her presence was soft yet powerful, her love steady and enduring. Though her physical voice is now silent, her spirit will echo in the lives she touched, in the laughter of her grandchildren, in the compassion of her daughters, and in the hearts of all who carry her memory forward.
