Theresa Elizabeth Mcneil

It is with broken hearts, we the family, regret to announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Theresa McNeil, 76, of New Waterford at home on December 21st, 2022.

To our family she was a wife, mother, nanny, GG, sister and aunt, who showed unconditional love to each and every one of us.

Theresa was completely devoted to her family. There was nothing she loved more than spending time with her children and grandchildren. She loved going out dancing, going for drives, and going out to Tim Hortons with her friends. She was a beautiful soul with the kindest heart who welcomed everyone she met with a smile and will be greatly missed by those who knew her.

Theresa is survived by her loving children Laura (John), Judy (Mike) James (Anndrea); Grandchildren Amanda (Cody), Kaley (Brandon), Jakk, Alexia, & Mira; two very special great grandchildren Rylon & Bryson; Sisters, Rosie (Morris), Valerie, Margie, Sarah & brother Gordon. She also leaves behind two special friends, Sherry & Evelyn along with many nieces and nephews.

Theresa has now been reunited with her Husband of 41 years James (Mick) McNeil, her parents Evelyn Gerrow & Moss Reid, brothers Johnny & Walter and sister Catherine.

Cremation has taken place under the care of McLellan Funeral Home. A chapel service will be held at 2p.m. on Wednesday, December 28th, 2022 in McLellan Funeral Home, 3183 Plummer Ave, New Waterford with Rev. Duncan Roach officiating. We invite you to share your memories, condolences, and words of comfort directly to Theresa's family by going to her Tribute Wall. 

Legacy Of Love

A wife, a mother, a grandma too,

This is the legacy we have from you. 

You taught us love and how to fight, 

You gave us strength, you gave us might. 

A stronger person would be hard to find, 

And in your heart, you were always kind 

You fought for us all in one way or another, 

Not just as a wife not just as a mother. 

For all of us you gave your best,

Now the time has come for you to rest. 

So go in peace, you’ve earned your sleep, 

Your love in ours hearts, we’ll eternally keep.
