Mary Theresa (McNulty) Furey, 79
REHOBOTH BEACH - Mary Theresa (McNulty) Furey of Rehoboth Beach passed away Monday, April 23, 2007, in her home, with her husband and family at her side. She was 79.
Theresa was born in Philadelphia, daughter of the late Joseph and Margaret McNulty, and sister of the late Anne, Thomas, John and Joan.
She was the beloved wife of Joseph, to whom she was married for 56 years; the loving mother of Patrice (Rick) Delargey, Kevin (Christele) Furey, Margaret Mary (Jeff) Ferguson, Thomas (Jeanne) Furey, Kathleen (Duke) Sheehan and Anthony (Katherine) Furey; and grandmother of 18 grandchildren and one great-grandson. She will also be missed by many nieces and nephews.
Theresa was a woman full of life and energy. Her accomplishments were far too many to list, however, the most important of those was raising her six children with her husband and best friend, Joe. They have followed in her footsteps and have become wonderful people and parents. She was always excited to have her grandchildren around, and always found time to share with them her love for the arts. Those moments will never be forgotten.
She was very active in the local community, participating in senior art class and the Rehoboth Beach YMCA's aerobic mermaids, volunteering with the New Life Thrift Store and helping with the St. Edmond's Catholic Church activities.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend Theresa's viewing on Friday, from 10 to 11:30 a.m., in St Edmond's Catholic Church, King Charles and Laurel streets, Rehoboth Beach, followed by a mass of Christian burial at 11:30 a.m.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Theresa's memory may be made to Dr. David Birch Medical Mission, Midway Assembly of God, Honduras Mission, P.O. Box 669, Lewes, DE 19958; or to the Cape Henlopen Senior Center, 11 Christian St., Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971.
