Salina, Utah - Teresa Ann Stoker Jepperson, age 61, passed away peacefully on June 10, 2026, in Salina, Utah. She was born on November 4, 1964, in Richfield, Utah, to Ray and Haleen Stoker.

Teresa grew up in Highland, Utah, where she made many cherished memories and lifelong friendships. She graduated from American Fork High School in 1983 and carried with her a strong love for family, animals, and the simple joys of life.

More than anything, Teresa was a wonderful and devoted mother. Her children were the heart of her life, and everything she did was rooted in her love for them. She was blessed with six children, the late Jerilynn Erickson; Krystal (Jordan) Martin; Courtney (Matthew) Crane; Trinity Jepperson; Charity (Tyrell) Frischknecht; and Hillary (Grant) Julander. She worried for them, laughed with them, stood beside them, and loved them with a mother’s heart that never wavered.

Teresa was fortunate to share her life with her beloved partner, Joel Crockett, whose companionship and devotion brought her great comfort and joy.

Teresa was also a proud grandmother to 23 grandchildren, each of whom held a special place in her heart. She adored spending time with them, sharing stories, laughter, and creating memories that will be treasured forever.

She is survived by her parents Ray and Haleen Stoker, siblings, Wendy (Michael) Barrett and Troy (Lori) Stoker, along with many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends.

Teresa will be remembered for her kind heart, unwavering love for her family, her sense of humor, and the warmth she brought to those around her. Though her passing leaves an immeasurable void, her legacy lives on through her children, grandchildren, family, and all who were fortunate enough to know and love her.

Our family finds comfort in knowing that Teresa’s love, strength, and spirit will remain with them always

“Those we love don’t go away; they walk beside us every day.”
