Teresa De Jesus Vidal Rodriguez Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Teresa returned to her Heavenly Father on August 14, 2020 at the young age of 68, in West Jordan, Utah. Born on September 14, 1951 in Lima, Peru to her parents Lydia Gladys Revilla and Ricardo Vicente Rodriguez, she was the second oldest of four children. Teresa immigrated to the United States during the 1970s in hopes of providing her sons a better life. She went back to school to learn English and worked tirelessly to ensure her boys didn’t miss out on any opportunities - all as a single mother. In addition to being a single mother to five boys, she was a dutiful daughter, sister, mother, aunt, cousin, grandmother, great grandmother and friend. Her passion for life and adventure was infectious to those around her - especially those she loved. She travelled the world immersing herself in new cultures, connected with people over delicious food, danced at any open opportunity, and laughed her way into people’s hearts. As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Teresa carried a strong testimony of the gospel and deep love for her savior, Jesus Christ. Though she wasn’t able to serve a full-time mission for the church, she lived her life as a full-time missionary never shying away from sharing her light with others. Teresa was truly an angel on Earth sent to constantly spread love and joy with her words and welcoming smile. Always fighting for her family, she ultimately passed away after an inspiring 8-week battle with COVID-19. She is survived by her 5 sons, Robert, Tommy, Danny, Kenny, and Sammy, along with 4 great-grandchildren, 12 grandchildren, 2 daughter-in-laws, 3 siblings and her amazing mother. Services: Memorial Service, Visitation A Memorial service for the family will be held August 20, 2020 at Neil O'Donnell Funeral Home located at 372 East 100 South, Salt Lake City, UT 84111 followed by a visitation from 7:00 - 9:00 PM open to all.
