Theresa Pistacchio, 85, of Fresno California, passed away on September 22, 2022, with her family by her side. She was preceded in death by her husband John H. Quintero, with whom she had three beloved children, Chris, Eric, and Jacqueline. Grandchildren are Christopher, Jordan, Cody, Joshua, and Gianna Sage.
Theresa was a lover of family, travel, and laughter. She was the kind of person who went out of her way to make friends out of strangers, conversate with people in the grocery store, and mail greeting cards to brighten up a person’s day. A native of Fresno, Theresa fulfilled her life-long dream of living on the Monterey Peninsula. The salty morning fog, the afternoon sun peaking through the clouds, and the sound and beauty of the crashing waves brought warmth and joy to her heart for decades before returning to Fresno. At her 40th high school reunion she reunited with her childhood friend Ron Pistacchio, who would become her cherished husband. Every day they had together was a wonderful one. They loved and adored each other until the end of her days. The final chapter of her life was filled with constant care, love, and support from Ron. In life and in passing, Theresa will forever be a symbol of happiness, kindness, and love.
