In Loving Memory of Teresa Ann Crigger-Orndorff

Teresa Ann Crigger-Orndorff, born on April 30, 1960, in Hanover, Pennsylvania, passed away on Tuesday, October 17, 2023, in her home in Chandler, Arizona. She was the beloved daughter of the late William Glenn and Nancy Lee Crigger. She was 63 years old.

Teresa is survived by her children: Tiffany L. Kelley (Mark) of McSherrystown, PA, Amy N. Myers (Brad) of Gilbert, AZ, and Harrison L. Oliver IV (Crystal) of Gettysburg, PA. She was a proud grandmother of Caleb and Evelyne Kelley, Maximus, Gabrielle, and Alexander Myers, and Ayden, Faith, and McCree Oliver.

Teresa is also survived by her siblings: Kathy Snyder of Hagerstown, MD, Kenneth Crigger of Littlestown, PA, Brenda Fox of Taneytown, MD, and Carol Benton of Dover, PA. In addition, she is survived by an uncle, numerous cousins, nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews, all of whom held a special place in her heart.

Teresa graduated from Francis Scott Key High School in Union Bridge, MD, in 1978. Prior to her disability, she worked at Tradition House Furniture Manufacturers and McClarin Plastics in Hanover, PA.

Teresa had a passion for various hobbies. She was an avid reader, a skilled crochet artist, and had an uncanny green thumb. Movies, especially those on the Hallmark Channel, were a cherished pastime, and she enjoyed them immensely; she was a hopeless romantic at heart. Teresa's love for animals, particularly dogs, was undeniable.

She was a cherished neighbor and a wonderful friend, known for her sassy-sometimes gruff- but always caring spirit and her love for gathering to play games. She was an intricate part of her community. Her generous nature and unwavering love for her family and friends left a lasting impact on all who had the privilege of knowing her.

Teresa Ann Crigger-Orndorff will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her sudden passing reminds us all of the importance of cherishing our loved ones and the simple joys of life. Rest in peace, dear Teresa, and may your garden in the heavens bloom with eternal beauty.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations in Teresa's honor to a local animal shelter or charity that supports individuals with disabilities. A private celebration of her life will be held at later time.
