Theresa Fredericks Obituary

THERESA LEE FREDERICKS
February 24, 1952 March 27, 2021
Theresa Lee Fredericks, 69, peacefully went to be with the Lord on March 27, 2021 after a four-month battle with Glioblastoma, a rare form of brain cancer. Terri had a special gift of brightening any conversation. Her outgoing personality was contagious to everyone she met.
Terri was born in Youngstown, Ohio on February 24, 1952, the daughter of Walter Charles Humphrey and Virginia Ann Humphrey. After moving to California, she graduated from Reseda High School in the San Fernando Valley. She began work at Litton Data Systems in Van Nuys California and was transferred to Colorado Springs, Colorado. There she met the love of her life and husband to be. Forty years later Terri retired from Northrup Grumman as a Senior Procurement Officer.
On May 20th, 1989 she married Cliffton Jay Fredericks in Colorado Springs. Together they lived in Southern California for thirty years before moving to Goodyear Arizona where Terri would begin her retirement. Terri enjoyed water aerobics, learning to play Pickleball, any activity involving the sun, but most of all, time with all friends, new and old.
Terri is survived by her husband Cliff, her sister Joan and brother in-law Patrick Gagen of Haleiwa, Hawaii, her brother Chuck and his significant other Peri Kemp of Kansas City, Missouri, her sister in-law Christine Dee Fredericks of Goodyear, and Terri's beloved four-legged kids, Bodi, Quinci, and her dog in-law Bo.
In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Wound Warrior Project (https://support.woundedwarriorproject.org/Default.aspx?tsid=1004) in Terri's name.
Terri will be missed so much, by so many. We love you.
