Theresa A. Minns

Theresa A. Minns, (Terry) 75 of Gardner MA, passed away at home on Friday October 4 2024 after a short battle with cancer.

She was born in Hartford, CT March 16, 1949, to the late Theodore and Anita Kycia.

Terry spent much of her career as a PCA supervisor for the Simplex Time Recorder Company, retiring in 2004 after 30 years.

She enjoyed trips to Hampton for the day and shopping with friends, but Terry’s greatest joy in life was spending time with her grandchildren. Whether she was called Grammy, Gam Gam or whatever the kids decided on that day, she was always there for them. They were her whole world.

Terry also held a very special place in her heart for Jayden, Christian and Elliott.

She leaves behind a son, Matthew Minns and his wife Jacqueline of Gardner, her grandchildren, Michael and Megan Minns of Gardner, a brother Michael Kycia and his wife Diane of Manchester, CT, and several nephews. She was predeceased by a son Michael C. Minns, her sister Arlene Tucker, and a brother Danny Kycia.

She will be missed always and forever.

A mass will be held in honor of Theresa on Thursday, October 17, 2024, at 11:00am at Holy Spirit Church, 50 Lovewell Street, Gardner, Massachusetts, 01440. Following the service, Theresa will be laid to rest at 12:30pm at St. John’s Cemetery, West Street, Gardner, Massachusetts, 01440.
