Theresa Shank Obituary

      Theresa "Terri" A. Pagnotto Shank, 69, of Jersey Shore, passed away Thursday, March 30, 2023 at Geisinger Medical Center, Danville.

     Born January 26, 1954 in Jersey Shore, she was the daughter to the late Robert W. Pagnotto and the former Carmel A. Christopher.

     Terri was a member of St. Luke's Catholic Church. She worked as an RN and served most of her nursing career at Pennsylvania State Hospital in Philadelphia as an ER nurse. She was dedicated to her patients and had kind words for everyone that knew her. She loved her quiet time at her trailer wrapped up in a book.

She always remained close to Robert, Xavier and Zachary Shank.

     Terri wished to give special thanks to Barb Reynolds and Barb Woodson.

     In lieu of flowers, the family asks for prayers, and to support your favorite charity in honor of Terri.

     Services will be held at the convenience of the family. She will be laid to rest next to her parents and grandparents in the Jersey Shore Cemetery.
