Teresa Howard
Teresa Lynn Howard (Roediger), age 63, of Franklin, Ohio, was reunited with her loved ones in Heaven on August 2, 2021. She was born on May 29, 1958.
Teresa was preceeded in death by her father, Aster Howard, in June of 2021, her beloved mother, Ruth Howard, in May of 2010, her brother, Tony Howard, in August of 1993, her brother, Mike Howard, in August of 1987, her granddaughter, Gracie, in August of 2003, and her beloved Dog, Cowboy.
Teresa was survived her children, Jake (Amber) Roberts and Lindsi Ratliff, her beloved grandchildren whom she loved more than life, Trace, Keely, Renna, Hailey, Cy and Malone; her nephew, Mike Howard; her aunt, Cheryl Jackson; and her love and soulmate, Jeff Roediger, who was everything a friend and husband should be to her. He loved her more than anything and made her every wish come true to the very end.
She also leaves behind special friends Leann, Leslie, Karen, Johnny Hurst, all of her animals and critters and so many others who loved and adored her for the loving, caring, giving and kind woman she was and always will be to us in our hearts.
She was a lover of all animals, especially horses, people and the ocean. She undoubtedly leaves a legacy that is unparalleled, and tiny shoes that will never be filled.
To say she will be missed is a gross understatement. It will be all we can do to carry on without her.
