Teresa Caverley

Teresa Marie Caverley, 53, Goshen, was called to her forever heavenly home Thursday, Aug. 5, 2021, just before 8 a.m., in her residence. Teresa was born in Warsaw Feb. 25, 1968, to Dale and Geraldine (Caverley) Hatfield. Teresa lived much of her life in the Warsaw and Goshen area.

Professionally, Teresa most recently worked in upholstery for Lippert Components, at Veada, in New Paris. She was hardworking and a dedicated employee; her colleagues and supervisors attested to this, stating that it would take two or three good workers to replace Teresa. Some may also remember Teresa from the years she supervised in housekeeping, at Comfort Inn/Holiday Inn, in Warsaw.

Teresa was a beautiful woman who believed in others. She embodied a strong resilience which reflects her life greatly. A genuine fan of classic country music, Teresa enjoyed her NASCAR races, as well a good western series. Teresa was a great friend to many and she loved her family dearly.
