Theresa Zack, 84, of Camp Hill would like to let you know that her work here on earth is done. She will no longer need her faux leopard coat, SoCo cocktail, or ACNJ rewards card. “Terry” passed peacefully at home on Saturday, September 10, with loving family by her side. Terry was born to Louis O’Bell and Mary Sakosky O’Bell Visotski, on March 7, 1938, in Throop, PA. She graduated from Throop High School and married the cute guy next door, Joseph Zack, Sr. in 1958. They were happily married for 62 years until Joe’s passing two years ago, which left Terry heartbroken to continue life without him. She wanted nothing more than to be reunited with her love. Theresa was the epitome of the ‘70s bra burners by attending the Executive Secretarial Science program at HACC, where she graduated at the top of her class in her late 30s. Much of her career was spent at the PA Department of Environmental Protection, a job she loved and eventually retired from. Theresa was a wonderful mother to her three surviving children, Joseph Zack, Jr. (and wife Donna) of New Cumberland, Kim McBride (and husband Randy) of Middleburg, and Randy Zack (and wife Dede) of Pittsburgh. “Glam-Ma” was treasured for her thoughtful Boscov’s gifts and birthday dinners out for her grandchildren, Dan (and wife Meghan), Steve (and wife Alyssa) and Melissa Zack; Roxy, Skyler, and Shaun McBride; Allesandra Zack and Christopher Wu. She was thrilled to welcome her four great-grandchildren, Malcolm, Tallulah, Marley, and Maisey Zack into the world. Terry is survived by one cherished sister, Marie Sullivan (and husband Tim) of Philadelphia, along with Marie’s children, whom she loved as her own. A funeral will be held Monday, September 19, 2022 at Good Shepherd Catholic Church (Camp Hill, PA). Visitation will be at 10:00 am and mass at 11:00 am. Following mass, the burial will be at Gate of Heaven Cemetery, in Mechanicsburg. The family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to Homeland Hospice for their loving guidance which allowed Theresa to be cared for by family at home for her final months. Instead of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Homeland Hospice, 2300 Vartan Way, Suite 270, Harrisburg, PA 17110, online donations can be made at www.homelandathome.org/donate.
