Teresa K. Eaker

Jul 1, 2018 | Obituaries

Teresa Kim Eaker (Frushour) passed away suddenly on June 30^th, 2018. Teresa was born November 11, 1960 in Detroit MI to Gloria and Rouland Frushour.

Teresa’s love and compassion for life was demonstrated through her family and transferred to all those around her. There were no lengths she would not go to comfort, care, and help those in need, whether they were in her direct orbit or those she never met. She has touched so many throughout her short life as a loving wife, a mother to her wonderful children, a sister, an Aunt, and a friend. All those she babysat as well as the friends of her children were treated and card for as if they were her own; all knowing her love and tenderness, but when needed, a scolding, even into their adult lives.  If only there were more like this cherished soul in this world.

She is survived by her Husband Daniel, Son Scott and his wife Amber, Daughter Danielle, Aunt Kay, Sister Toni Parrin, Brothers Tom and David Frushour, Sister In-laws Cathy Frushour and Guyla Boswell, as well as many Nieces and Nephews.

Teresa’s desire was for us not to grieve her passing as she is no longer suffering, but to celebrate her life together. The family would like to remember the love she showed, the heart she shared with all those around her, and her laugh that would have everyone around her laughing. To honor Teresa’s life and memory please give as she gave, love as she loved, laugh as she laughed, be a little sassy as she did. Show compassion for humans and animals, love for God, family and country, and be strong against that which is wrong.
