Teresa J. Gaitan Obituary

The passing of Teresa J. Gaitan of Washington, District of Columbia leaves a void in the hearts of many, as we bid farewell to a loving soul who departed on February 3, 2025 at the age of 100. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Teresa J. Gaitan to show support.

Though Teresa may no longer walk beside us, her memory will forever be enshrined in the fabric of the lives of those Teresa touched, a beacon of light guiding us through the darkness. In her absence, her spirit lives on — a gentle whisper in the breeze, a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day, a reminder that love knows no boundaries.

She was predeceased by: her parents, Teresa V. McGarry (McGuiness) and Joseph A. McGarry; her granddaughter Desiree Van Rest; and her sister Helen V. McGarry. She is survived by: her daughter Terry Gaitan; and her great grandchild Jayden Van Rest.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggest donations in Teresa's name to the Prevention of Blindness, Washington, D. C, 415 2nd Street NE, Suite 200, Washington, DC 20002 (Youreyes.org).
