Teresa B. Bellville

Teresa “Terry” B. Bellville, 87, of West Chester, PA, passed away peacefully on Thursday, August 7, 2025.

Terry was born on July 10, 1938, in Waynesburg, Kentucky. She is survived by her 3 daughters; Robin (Tom) Drew, Judy (Steve) Sorenson and Kendra (Mike) Joyce, her 10 grandchildren; Kelly, Collin, Eric, Ryan, Caroline, Jenna, Daniel, Sarah, Mary and Michael, and her brother, Roger (Carleen) Busse.

Terry held many jobs throughout her life as she moved between Kentucky, Chicago and Delaware with her former husband, Bob Bellville. She spent the last 30+ years of her career in an administrative/purchasing position at DuPont/Dade Behring/Siemens, in Newark, DE. She loved to keep busy, and when she wasn’t working enjoyed cooking, sewing, reading, working in her yard, crossword puzzles and watching FOX news and Jeopardy. Her favorite pastime, however, was spending time with her children and grandchildren.

Terry was known by friends and family as a smart, soft-spoken, dedicated and extremely caring person. Her reserved demeanor sometimes hid a strong and insightful intellect. Above all else, she was always willing to help others and often put their needs above her own.

Relatives and friends are invited to Terry’s Visitation at 10:00 a.m., Thursday, August 14th, followed by her Funeral Mass at 11:00 a.m. at Saints Philip & James Church, 723 Lincoln Highway, Exton, PA. All are welcome to attend the luncheon following the services at The Jockey Tavern, 240 Lancaster Ave, Malvern. Burial will be private.

Terry’s family truly appreciates the love, support and prayers during this extremely difficult time.

In the last days of her life, Terry was cared for by the very compassionate medical staffs at both Freedom Village Brandywine and Holisticare Hospice Services. In lieu of flowers, donations in Terry’s memory may be made to: Holisticare Hospice, 985 Old Eagle School Road, Suite 504, Wayne, PA 19087, or online: www.holisticarehospice.org.
