It is with great sadness and heavy hearts to announce that Theresia Modritsch, our angel here on earth has moved on to her next journey of everlasting life with her Lord and Saviour and to join those gone before her at the age of 94.
After many years of dwindling health, she peacefully passed away at home in her sleep on the morning of December 29, 2021. She was surrounded by the love of family.
Predeceased by Henry Modritsch, son Gery Modritsch and daughter Ingrid Anderson as well as her great grandson Ben whom I know will now be in her arms. Predeceased by her siblings and their spouses in Austria.
Will be dearly missed by her daughter Trudy Taylor (Tim), son Robert (Deborah Ann) and daughter-in-law Dorothy Modritsch. Cherished grandmother of Alicia, Jen (Mario), Deidre Harrington (Chris), James and Ashley Alexandria. She deeply loved her great grandchildren Paige, Adrianna, Arrianna, Faith Kayley, Hazel and Sahara Ann. Blessed with the love of her great great grandchild Evie. Survived by many relatives in Austria.
