Teresita R. Zosa, “Tessie” to many, earned her angel wings on Saturday, July 2, 2022 at the age of 84. She joined our Heavenly Father peacefully at her home in Scarborough.

The beautiful Tessie took particular care of her appearance and always exuded confidence and charm. She had an outgoing personality, enjoyed socializing, and was beloved by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing her. She loved listening to music, dancing and traveling.

After surviving a hemorrhagic stroke in November 2015, which paralyzed the left side of her body, Tessie fearlessly chose to undergo several sessions of radiation therapy to battle her lung cancer, showcasing her unparalleled strength, fighting spirit, and unwavering faith in God. Her strong will and bravery will forever be immortalized as she continues to be a beacon of courage, optimism, and light to everyone that was around her.

The Darling wife of Teofilo D. Zosa, Jr. for 66 years will be immensely missed by her children, Marichell (Allan), Tess (Eli), Benjie (Alice), Nette (Jong). Ever-loving Mama of Allan II, Tristan, Alyx, Taylor, Hazel, Ria, Francis, Gabi, Erin, Cassie, Keifer, GT, Aileen, Tonton, BG, Toni, Dani and Daryll and her many great grandchildren.

- A FALLEN LIMB -
A limb has fallen from the family tree.
I keep hearing a voice that says, "Grieve not for me.
Remember the best times, the laughter, the song.
The good life I lived while I was strong,
Continue my heritage, I'm counting on you.
Keep smiling and surely the sun will shine through.
My mind is at ease, my soul is at rest,
Remembering all, how truly I was blessed.
Continue traditions, no matter how small.
Go on with your life, don't worry about falls.
I miss you all dearly, so keep up your chin.
Until the day comes we're together again."
