Teresa
Lynn Coakley, beloved mother, grandmother, sister and friend, passed away on
August 14, 2025, in her home. Born on May 14, 1962, Teresa lived a life filled
with compassion, joy, and an open heart for all who crossed her path.
She
had a deep love for lighthouses, dolphins, and animals of every kind, always
finding beauty in the natural world. Known as a caretaker by nature, Teresa
never turned away from someone in need. She could strike up a conversation with
anyone, had never met a stranger, and welcomed people with warmth and kindness
that made them feel at home.
Teresa’s
greatest pride was her family. Her laughter, her generosity, and her boundless
spirit will continue to live on in all who knew her. She will be remembered not
only for the love she gave but the way she made every single human in her path
feel welcomed. She will be greatly missed.
Preceded
in death by her mother and father, Sharon Wiggins and Samuel Coakley, her
brother, Sammy, and her brother Phillip. She is survived in life by her two
Children, Max Coakley and Nathan Coakley, her only grandchild, Grayson
Wohlford, her brother, David Coakley and her sister, Karen Coakley Bagent. As
well as several other aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.
A
memorial service for Teresa Coakley will be held at the Word Worship Center,
808 Orange St., Coshocton on Saturday August 23, 2025, at 12:00 PM Noon with a
lunch after at the church.
The
