Teressa Ellen Olson Stahle


Teressa Ellen Olson Stahle 1957 ~ 2010


Teressa Ellen Olson Stahle, loving wife and mother, passed away on January 19, 2010 while in the service of her family.


Teressa was born to Melvin and Wilda Olson in Afton Wyoming on October 19, 1957. She was the youngest of seven children. Teressa graduated high school from Star Valley High School. Later, she attended Brigham Young University where she graduated with her Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education. During her time at BYU, she met her husband, Roger Stahle, and they were sealed together in the Salt Lake Temple. They celebrated 31 wonderful years together last December.


After graduating from BYU, she began teaching elementary school. She spent over 25 years devoted to helping children enjoy learning and to succeed every step of the way.


More than teaching, she loved spending time with her family; husband Roger, her four daughters Mindy, Candace (Palfreeman), Ginny, Madison and son-in-law Scott Palfreeman. She never missed out on an opportunity to cheer on and support those she loved most by going to various sport events and recitals. Her last days were spent with her latest additions to the family: her three beautiful grandchildren (Harley Stahle, and Chase and Carter Palfreeman).


After receiving a heart transplant almost 8 years ago she continued giving back by being a donor herself.


She was preceded in death by her parents. She is survived by her brothers Larry Olson (Shirley), Laron Olson (Darleen), Mel Olson (Sue), Donnie Olson (Cindy), Lynn Olson (Carol), and sister Deniese Ord (Craig).


She will be loved and missed.


The Viewing will be at Walker Family Mortuary, 187 South Main, Spanish Fork, UT on Monday evening January 25, 2010 from 6-8 p.m. and Tuesday morning prior to services at 10 a.m at the church.


Funeral services will be held on Tuesday, January 26, 2010 at 11 a.m. at the Spanish Fork East Stake Center, 870 East Canyon Rd, Spanish Fork.
