Arnold Cathy Rachel and Becky. So sorry to hear about your Mom. She was loved by many and will surely be missed. Neil and Judy (Muga) Smith

Sending you and the family so much love. I have so many fond memories of Aunt Theresa and Uncle Jack. Especially years ago in Colorado (I think it was for Aunt Julia’s wedding). What a long and beautiful life she lived and looked damn good doing it! Love you all and so sorry I couldn’t make it today. Sending big hugs.

A lovely lady that loved visiting us up on Bickle Hill, enjoying a fine meal and putting a dent in my single malt. We had many enjoyable chats over the years and will miss her dearly. RIP you deserve it. Rj

Condolences to the Bowen family on the loss of this beautiful lady. I curled for many years with Teresa. She was such a kind and friendly lady, always with a smile on her face.

My condolences on Theresa’s passing, she will be missed.

Aunt Theresa will be sadly missed. I loved her personality and energy. Theresa, I hope there’s a grilled cheese sandwich waiting for you in heaven! Nephew Tom

It was always a pleasure to curl with Teresa I remember one time curling in the Big Bird and she dressed up as a yellow bird She was so much fun Condolences. Sharan and Jim

We are very sorry to hear Teresa has passed. Jack and Teresa spent many times visiting with my parents, John and Jane Boreham. They also attended St Francis de Sales Catholic Church in Colborne before moving. All of the family is in my thoughts and prayers!!

Theresa was always full of spunk when we curled together and volunteered at the Colborne Curling Club. She was so kind to me as a newcomer. Lots of laughs and great memories. Rest in Peace

To all of Theresa's family we send our heartfelt sympathy. We were neighbours on Division St, Brighton. We have lots of memories of both you Mom and Dads sense of humour.They were great neighbours and taught us some life lessons, No need to cut grass on Sunday, to which we fully agreed and still practice today. We also had the pleasure of knowing Alex the cat. You had your Mom for all the years of your life, enjoy all those memories now that she left you. Barry and Carolynn

On behalf of my family, we would like to extend our most sincere sympathies. Teresa and our Mom would meet weekly at their favourite hairdresser’s. Both of these ladies took great pride in their appearance. She would always take time to stop and visit no matter where their paths crossed. Anyone who knew Teresa, has lost a true treasure. Grace Chapman & Family

My sincere condolences are extended to Teresa's family and friends. She was a delightful lady who always had a story to tell and found the best in all people and life's challenges. I enjoyed many years of curling with her in Colborne. RIP Dear Lady!

Our since condolences to Teresa’s family. She knew how to spread joy during her long life. She will be missed.

Oh sweet little Teresa.....what a treasure to know. Teresa taught me the rules of Shuffleboard at Legion Village and was quite the competitive player. She always had a smile for everyone and enjoyed life. My condolences to Teresa's family.

My sincere condolences to Teresa’s family. I spoke with her often passing on CWL updates. I loved talking to her, she had a fantastic sense of humour. I’ve missed those calls recently. A wonderful life lived to the fullest. Blessings to all of you.

I will forever cherish the many chats and visits I had the pleasure of daily at Legion Village. To all of Theresa’s family, my thoughts are with each and every one of you. Cherish the special memories you have. Big hugs to you all ♥️

I am not sure if it’s customary for a direct family member to post on a loved one’s memorial board but here goes. I will break the rules. I have said from day one of knowing John how much I loved his mom. I could not have asked for a better mother-in-law. She never criticized me and she had plenty reason to, believe me! She was so positive and encouraging and was never the typical “mother-in-law”. A quality I am striving for with my own daughter in-laws. Something special between us was her trust in me. I was a confidant and she would write me letters often for many years and I have them all. Teresa and I had a week together almost every summer at my cottage on Lake of Bays. Our boys would treasure these visits and time with Gramma Bowen. She always arrived with a goodie bag for each of them with all their favourite things. She didn’t miss a thing. She also didn’t miss a meal. Man could she pack the food in. That tiny little woman could eat more than my big boys. One final memory to share is the shopping trips we had at Sherway Gardens. Teresa would make friends with everyone in every store and would get her wardrobe for that season. She had beautiful clothes and took such good care of herself. Lessons from my dear mother-in-law I hope to implement going forward. 1. Be interested in people and their families. Ask them about themselves. 2. EAT, DRINK, enjoy your meals but have balance and take care of yourself. 3. Have faith. Teresa was a woman of God. She was faithful and dedicated. I will miss her but I celebrate her fabulous 100 year life!

My sincerest condolences to Teresa’s family. I have to believe that she and my sister Marilyn, recently deceased, will be taking their gin and raisins together and discussing curling as they did in life at Legion Village.

Teresa and Jack were our neighbours in Colborne. Loved curling with her, a wonderful lady!! Condolences to her family! Ursula Clark

She was a great lady and will be missed by all. She was my favorite person!!

My sincerest condolences to Teresa's family. Teresa and I always had a few laughs when I checked on her daily at the Legion Village. What a funny, loving woman. I did try the gin and raisins, as she said they are good for your overall health, oh boy were they, especially taking them in the mornings. Teresa was always on the go, she never stopped even when she wasn't feeling her best. Teresa will be missed terribly by all that knew her. God Bless Teresa you are out of pain and are in God's hands now.

Cathy, Arnold, Rachel & Becky - Our sincerest condolences to all of you. From the many stories Becky told us of her grandma, she sounded like such a great woman. Cherish all the great memories. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Anne - Thinking of you and your family at this difficult time. Your Mom was a very special person.

Theresa was such a joy, her beautiful smiles, laughter, & lot's of spunk. I enjoyed my visits when l checked in on her at the Legion Village as her PSW. Cheers to you up there with your Gin, RIP. And so sorry to you all for your loss

Sincere condolences to the Bowen family. I'm greatful to have known this spunky lady while I worked at Legion Village. She was truly one of a kind there was no stopping her. She will surely be missed by those who knew her. Rest in peace dear lady. Keep you're memories close

Dear Anne and family, I am so sorry to hear of Teresa's passing. She was such a kind lady and so much fun to be around. I curled with her many years ago and she always brightened my day! May your happy memories help to lift your sorrow.

To Teresa's family. Such a lovely lady and a treasure. I knew her from the diningroom at Legion Village. So sad to hear of her passing she will be missed greatly by all who knew her. She was always smiling and happy.

Cathy, Arnold, Rachel and Becky…..I have no words. Teresa was most certainly a spirit here at Legion Village. Thought of golden raisins and gin shall be a wonderful memory. My sincere condolences to you all. ❤️❤️

When I (Jan) think of sweet Mrs. Bowen, it is definitely in the Muskoka cottage setting when she came to visit John and the family. I remember how much she loved the lake and the trees, my sister Nancy's great cooking, and John's barbecuing. She also loved poking around the little stores in the towns on the lake and often bought a little top that always looked so cute on her. It was amazing how well she remembered details of all the family members' lives (even mine) and was so proud of her grandsons Scott and Brad, their wives Kelsey and Kinsey and her great-granddaughter Kaia. She also talked about all the other family members with such affection. I know how much she will be missed and I am glad that I had a chance to get to know her on those cottage visits.

Sincere condolences to the Families, I knew Teresa from working at Legion Village. She was always a happy, kind, spunky lady whom was a pleasure to serve in the dining room. She was one of a kind and will be missed by all.

What an amazing lady. I have great memories of Teresa at the Colborne Curling Club

Aunt Teresa as I knew her for many years, was a family treasure. She lived her life to the fullest & will be dearly missed by all of the family. My sincere condolences & prayers are with you.

Teresa always had a smile that lite up a room ! She was such an inspiration. When we camped at Cobourg beach she would walk past with a great big smile and always asked how you were as she carried on her fast paced walk ! She truly lived life to the fullest and made the most of every day ! Hold her memories close to all of you !

Condolences and prayers to you and your family on the loss of your mother. She was such a go getter.

Cathy, Arnold, Rachel & Becki My heart aches for the loss of your Mom & Grandma. I am so blessed to have spent so much time with Teresa. She was truly an amazing lady. Grateful I got in to say good bye! Thank you for giving her the best life. You are truly amazing people❤️
