Teresa Sue Cleland was the oldest daughter of Jeanette and Richard Queen. As the second oldest of nine children, and the oldest of seven sisters, she learned to love and care for others early on. Teresa once dreamed of being a truck driver, like her dad, and seeing the country. She married Bert Cleland in 1982, but sadly he predeceased her. Teresa’s greatest joy in life was her family; her daughters, Carrie and Jessica and son-in-law Jason, her grandchildren Jillian and Joshua, and her many siblings and their families. A creative soul at heart, Teresa made a career as a baker and cake artist. Her favorite hobbies involved crafting, and she spent many afternoons with her sisters laughing over projects. Her smile brightened a room, and she welcomed everyone she met with an open heart. Teresa was preceded in death by her husband Herbert Cleland, father Richard Queen, sister Jeanie Eich.She is survived by her daughters: Carrie (Jason) Fishner, Jessica Cleland; Grandchildren Jillian & Joshua Fishner; Siblings: Dave (Jolene) Queen, Shirley Browning, Vicki (Joe) Acamo, Pam Talty, Mary Wiens, Tom (Kerry) Queen, Susie Queen; Many other relatives and friends.
