Condolences & Tributes
Add A CondolenceTeresa (Mama T) was a wonderful and joyful person who you knew would always have a big smile and kind words when you checked out at Fareway. She was truly a blessing to her check you out. She is and will be greatly missed! ❤️
I will miss our Tuesday conversations and the way we gave each other a "hard time" when I showed up to see Doug, my brother. We would laughingly complain about each other to other Fareway customers who knew we were friends. I will miss her dearly and hope her family knows that she had a lot of friends who loved her and looked forward to seeing her weekly. God speed Mama T 🙏
Lori and I met Mama T at Fareway when she started she had a personality that was infectious. She was so kind and loving. We will miss her dearly
Definitely the MVP at Fareway. Her smile and demeanor made the day for many loyal shoppers. We will all miss her. Ron Sampson.
