Teresa J. Pasch, 46, of Onalaska, WI passed away surrounded by family at Franciscan Skemp Medical Center on August 19, 2010.

Teresa was born December 28, 1963 in Dublin, GA to Ben and Joy (Smith) Evans.

 

Teresa was joined in marriage to Gary Pasch, September 1, 2006.

 

Teresa’s childhood was spent in Wrightsville, GA where much of her family still lives. She moved to Tomah, Wisconsin in 1980 with Frederick and Shirley Linenberg and their children Lorrie Pergande and Mark and Todd Linenberg who are now considered brothers and sisters.

 

Teresa enjoyed spending her time being silly with her family and friends. Being considered the “loud Grandma” by her grandkids made her happy. Her southern accent and her smile made her stand out to everyone she met. In her quiet moments, she enjoyed curling up with a good book.

 

Teresa is survived by her husband Gary J Pasch; daughters Kimberly (Ben) Williams of Onalaska, WI, Elizabeth Calhoun of Onalaska, WI, and Allison Coller of Kendall, WI; grandchildren Abigail and Lucas Williams; sister Sherry Calhoun of La Crosse, WI; brother Tony Evans of Wrightsville, GA; step-dad Carl Rowland of Wrightsville, GA; aunts Lottie Soles and Joyce (Ray) Dixon of Wrightsville, GA; and many special nieces, nephews, cousins, other family members and friends.

 

She is preceded in death by both her parents and two brothers, Ben Evans Jr and Wendell Evans.

 

The family of Teresa would like to take the opportunity to extend their sincere appreciation to the Doctors, Nurses, Patient Care Techs, Social Workers, and support staff of Franciscan Skemp Healthcare’s Cancer Center, Emergency Room and 9^th Center Unit. Your compassion and respect during the course of care will forever be in our hearts.

 

A celebration of Teresa’s life will be held Monday, August 23^rd, 2010 at 11:00 AM at St. Paul’s Evangelical Lutheran Church in Onalaska.
