Teresa Dunn
1954 – 2020
August 4, 1954 ~ January 15, 2020
It is with heartfelt sadness and the joy for a life that we announce the passing of Teresa Coppock Dunn. Her memory will be forever cherished by her two daughters, Victoria and Claire Dunn. Teresa spent her life doing what she loved; travelling, riding horses, looking after her dogs…. and of course her grand-dogs. She had the privilege of visiting many beautiful places around the world. Teresa spent the majority of her life in England, South Africa and Canada. However, a real holiday for her included a proper cappuccino on the beach. Teresa enjoyed working in the garden and in the summer cutting the grass on her tractor, her home was her little oasis on earth. She was always a joy to be around and such a beautiful soul. Her absence will forever be felt in our hearts. Teresa’s Celebration of Life will be held at the Holiday Inn Express, 9 Strachan Bay S.E., Medicine Hat, on January 22, 2020. Please join us to celebrate Teresa Dunn and to say good-bye between 3:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. There will be a formal ceremony beginning at 4:00 p.m.
“Of all the gifts that life has to offer, a loving Mother is the greatest of them all.”
If friends so desire, memorial donations may be made in Teresa’s name directly to the Canadian Diabetes Association, #220, 6223 – 2 Street S.E., Calgary, Alberta T2H 2P5.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Teresa Dunn 1954 2020..

It is with sadness we receive this news about Cousin Teresa Coppock Dunn. I still have fond memories of visiting Teresa, and her parents in England. Teresa’s Mother, Violet would send frequent letters to her sister (my Mother), Margaret Alberta (Coppock) Macaulay, with updates on Teresa. These letters keep the distant families together. We were overjoyed when Teresa visited us in Ottawa near 1970 and later with her move to Alberta. Teresa, we will think of you and your uplifting spirit often. /Peter Macaulay, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Teresa was a beloved cousin. I have so many wonderful memories of our families getting together in England when my father was stationed in Germany. It was a magical time as we had many trips across Europe. Our mothers were so close and we always were updated on the special events in your life. You were so proud of your two daughters.
Our thoughts go out to you Victoria and Claire. May you both be strengthened by your memories.
I found the piece of Shanklin pottery you bought for me when we were early teens on the Isle of Wight. It will always remind me of you.
