Theresa Marie Lampe

Theresa Marie Lampe, “Terry,” of East Bradford Township passed away peacefully on June 25, 2025, following a long and courageous fight with cancer; she was 62. Terry lived a full life and enjoyed many passions, but her greatest joy was to be surrounded by family and friends – especially Curt, her loving husband of 16 years, and her children Nicole Vance (Frank) and Ryan Stiles (Taylor). Terry is also survived by her mother, Roswitha; her granddaughters, Mila and Charlotte; her stepdaughter, Madison; and many cherished family and friends. She is predeceased by her father, Ed.

Fittingly born in Paris, France, Terry was known for her chic sense of fashion – always donning whites, bright colors, and big sunglasses alongside her signature blonde curls. Though she loved to relax and enjoy a meal or glass of wine with family and friends by the pool in West Chester or on the bay at her shore house in Avalon, Terry was far more comfortable moving than sitting still. She excelled in most athletic feats she tried, and she was particularly fond of tennis; pickleball; golf; cycling; long-distance running; and weight lifting (even competing in several body building competitions as a young woman). She also loved traveling, especially to island and beach destinations.

Terry leaves behind dozens of mourning family members and friends, but they are comforted by the lasting memories and good times shared with her. A woman of great warmth, depth, positivity, humor, and love, Terry was, above all else, generous to the very end – an excellent giver of gifts both big and small; an idea woman pulling off parties and special events for her loved ones; and someone always willing to lend an ear in support or a shoulder to lean on.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate Terry’s life on Tuesday, July 1st at The Donohue Funeral Home, 1627 West Chester Pike, West Chester, PA 19382, visitation from 9:00-11:00 AM followed by a service from 11:00-11:30. Burial to follow at Calvary Cemetery in West Conshohocken. Though she looked stunning in all colors including black, Terry wishes that guests wear whites and/or bright colors for her send off.

In lieu of flowers, contributions my be made to The American Cancer Society, 1818 Market St., Suite 2820, Philadelphia, PA 19103.
