Teresa Giammette
May 8, 2022
Teresa Giammette of Yonkers, New York, recently residing at Cabrini of Westchester, Dobbs Ferry, died peacefully on Mother’s Day, May 8, 2022. Teresa was born on January 15, 1929 to Rocco and Maria (Ciammara) Giammette. She is survived by her siblings Marguerite, Robert, Elizabeth, and Rosalie. She is predeceased in death by her siblings Dominic, Anne, Josephine, and Leon. She also leaves behind many nieces and nephews that she loved dearly. Teresa loved to capture family memories, including photos, diaries, and audio recordings of those who are no longer with us, which we will continue to cherish. She taught us all to respect our elders with meticulous reverence to her parents in life as well as death. Teresa was a daily communicant at St. Mary’s Church in Yonkers, New York where she was a Eucharistic Minister for 25 years and served her community through her parish. She was last employed at St. Joseph’s Hospital as a buyer, as well as a meter maid for the Yonker’s police department as a young girl. In the 50 years since the death of their parents, Teresa cared for her brother with the fierce, unwavering love of a mother. She was always his advocate, and he will miss her guidance, love, and care equivalent to a mothers’. We celebrate her passing on Mother’s Day in a role she fulfilled for the last 50 years with abundant grace. Teresa will be laid to rest on Tuesday, May 10, 2022 at St. Joseph’s Cemetery at 10:00 AM. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in honor of Teresa to Cabrini of Westchester, 115 Broadway, Dobbs Ferry, New York 10522
