Mrs. Teresa Colette Pittman passed away Sunday December 6, 2009 at the Lethbridge Regional Hospital, at the age of 87 years.

Teresa was born on September 18, 1922 in Lethbridge, Alberta. After graduating from Normal School in 1942, she married her husband, Charles Pittman. She taught school in Grand Prairie, Diamond City, Prince George, BC and Calgary, and later obtained her BA in Education at University of Calgary. As much a student as she was a teacher, she enjoyed learning French and Spanish during her retirement.

She is predeceased by her parents, Stephano and Anne Bario of Lethbridge; her husband Charles of Kenora Ontario, and her sisters, Lena (John M) Smith of Cardston and Mary (Dale) Earl of Lethbridge.

A loving and devoted mother, she is survived by her children, son Richard (Jenny) and their daughters, Zana, Amanda, Jessica and Maggie; daughter Joanne; son Robert (Lynette) and their sons, Brendan and Nathan, and daughter Judith, and three great grandchildren.

A graveside service for the family and memorial gathering will be held at a later date.
