January 19, 1953 ~ March 20, 2023
Resided in:
Asheville, NC
Theresa Lynn Siegrist passed away peacefully on March 20, 2023, at CarePartners Solace Center in Asheville, NC after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer. After graduating from Forest Hill High School, West Palm Beach, FL in 1971, she spent over 40 years living in Atlanta.
She retired to Asheville, NC in 2018. Theresa had an enormous zest for life; she loved the Atlanta Braves, hiking, playing pickleball, and traveling. Golf was her biggest passion, Theresa golfed as much as possible with friends from Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina, playing on courses all over the country and in Scotland. One of her proudest moments was the hole-in-one landed on the 17th hole at Reems Creek on May 16, 2022, in Weaverville, NC.
Theresa loved being around her many friends but was most happy surrounded by her family.
She is survived by her son, Michael and his wife Lauren; five brothers, Buzz (Karen), Patrick (Fran), Ben (Annie), Tim (Bob), and Jeff (Julie); her uncle Jack; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
The family would like to express appreciation to all the caretakers at Messino Oncology, CarePartners Solace Center, and especially the doctors and nurses at Mission Hospital in Asheville, NC.

Theresa was a great friend. We shared many great adventures together, and I’m left with such wonderful memories.
A lovely lady met through golf outings. She will be missed but remembered for all the good times spent on the golf courses.
My deepest condolences and love to all the family. Theresa shared wonderful stories of you all.
I feel so fortunate to have known Theresa. We shared lots of golf games and travels including to Europe. When lagging behind the group on one of those trips, I will never forget how Theresa came back to walk with me. She also taught me to hum a song when walking to help with breathing. I always think of her, and smile, when I take my daily walks.
My memories are precious and cherished.
Rest easy dear Lady.
Many prayers Bob and Tim and Mike and all the Brothers and family.
Always enjoyed the time with Theresa at various golf events in the Southeast. She will be missed
May her memory always be a blessing.
Enjoyed playing golf with Theresa in Atlanta and around the Southeast. She will be missed.
I recently got to chat with you at Reems Creek Golf Club. Our slice of heaven. You invited me and insisted that I play with you and the 18 holers. I said yes, definately when I get back in May. I’m so sad that that won’t happen. May you RIP. You will be missed by many. May your friends and family’s memories of you be a comfort and blessing.
