Teresa Renee Wallace

Teresa was born on March 9, 1963 in Memphis, TN to David and Hideko (Takae) Wallace. She helped shape the minds of hundreds of children as an elementary school teacher in Moreno Valley, CA. She retired in 2019 after 33 years.

Teresa was a definite Pisces as evidenced by her love of water. Her one request on every trip was to stop and touch the water whether it was a lake, stream, or ocean. Her final trip was to Hawaii to celebrate her retirement.

Angels, Snoopy and the Peanuts gang, and Queen and Freddie Mercury always brought a smile to her face.

Teresa is survived by her mother Hideko; sister and brother-in-law Judy (Wallace) and Richard Carter of Lilburn, GA; and nephews David and John Carter.

She was preceded in death by her father, David Paul Wallace.

In response to current Covid-19 restrictions, a private family service will be held. Condolences can be mailed to Fairhaven Memorial Park, c/o The Family of Teresa Wallace, 1702 Fairhaven Ave, Santa Ana CA 92705.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the ASPCA.
