She was predeceased by her husband, Klemens; parents, Georg and Maria Grimm; and her brothers, Georg, Rudy, Wolfgang, and Josef. Theresa was born in Falkenfels, Germany on November 10th, 1925. Theresa met Klem in Germany after the war and decided to come to Canada for the opportunity for a better life. They were married in Medicine Hat on September 4th, 1953. While raising their family, Theresa worked at the Medical Arts Clinic and the Medicine Hat Greenhouse. She enjoyed visiting with friends, baking, cooking her German dishes, and loved planting her flowers in the spring. But, her greatest joy in life were her children and beloved grandchildren. She was a wonderful mother to John, Vera and Frank and a very special Oma to Nikolas, Jeremy, Aaron, Benjamin and Elan, who will all miss her very much.
