Teresa Ann Gross

Teresa Ann Gross, age 57, passed away on Sunday, April 6, 2025, at Mercy St. Vincent’s Medical Center due to complications related to her courageous, years-long battle against pulmonary fibrosis.

Teresa was born on December 31, 1967, and grew up in Northwood, Ohio. Teresa married her husband, John Gross, on September 11, 1999. They eventually moved to Elmore, Ohio together where they raised their family.

She loved bird watching, feeding the neighborhood animals, crafting and creating various projects, enjoying nature, and more than anything, spending time with her family and pets. Teresa loved her family fiercely, and was always their biggest supporter in anything they did. She loved her dogs as family, too, and loved nothing more than snuggling with them while bird watching. Anyone who knew Teresa would tell you that she was the most selfless and kind person they knew.

Teresa was preceded in death by her parents, Kelly and Alice Reynolds. She is survived by her husband of 26 years, John Gross, and her two children, Devon and Jenell Gross. She is also survived by her three grandsons, Levi Richmond, Landyn Gross, and Asher Gross.

There are no services currently planned, per Teresa’s request. Those wishing to make a memorial donation are asked to consider the Humane Society of Ottawa County, 2424 E. Sand Road, Port Clinton, Ohio 43452. Online condolences may be shared at www.walkerfuneralhomes.com. The Robinson-Walker Funeral Home & Crematory of Genoa, Ohio is assisting with arrangements.
