Teresa Carolyn Moye Rylee
23 APRIL 1932  -  1 OCTOBER 2013

Teresa was born in McAdoo, Pennsylvania, to Rose and Joseph Moye. She passed from this life at her home in Sherman, Texas.
Teresa wore many hats in her lifetime. She was Secretary to the Principal of Perryton Junior High School, Administrative Executive Secretary for Wheatheart Feeders in Perryton, Texas, and opened her own design shop. For many years she worked for S&H Green Stamps, having been honored several times as top salesperson in her region. Upon retiring, Teresa was able to fulfill her biggest passion by working in floral design. Working as a floral designer at MJ Designs, Hobby Lobby and several other Sherman interior design stores. She also spent five years working at Dallas Market Center.
In recent years, Teresa also was able to fulfill her passion for volunteering, constantly giving her time at Grand Central Soup Kitchen in Sherman, St Mary's Catholic School and at St. Mary's Catholic Parish in Sherman.
Her biggest joys were being a 'Granny' to her grandchildren and their friends, her two dogs and being Catholic. Teresa's hobbies included floral design, sewing, cooking, making homecoming mums, decorating, reading and music. Teresa always said she may not have been born in Texas, but she got here as soon as she could. She touched many lives with her love of flowers and her spunky nature. She will be greatly missed.
She was preceded in death by her parents, three sisters and two brothers.
Teresa is survived by her husband of sixty-three years, Ray G. Rylee; son, Jeff Rylee and his wife Jennie; daughter Debbie Blanton and her husband Jim; two grandchildren: Breanne Gibson Vopelak and her husband Rob, and Young Rylee.
