Theresa Amelia (Samblanet) McCauley

Theresa Amelia McCauley, age 97, of Louisville, OH passed away peacefully, in her home, on Monday, May 20, 2024. She was born December 11, 1926 in Harrisburg, OH to the late Austin and Florence (Frank) Samblanet. Theresa was a 1944 graduate of Louisville High School; she married Elmus McCauley in 1949 and spent 79 years as a Louisville resident. She was an extremely hard worker and a champion at puzzles and card games. Church, Elmus, her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren were her life. She was always the ultimate giver and provider, while never a taker.

McCauley in 2003; a son, Raymond McCauley; six sisters, Thelma Fladung, Mary Bahl, Faye Pitts, Anna Mae McCormick, Doris Martelet and Helen McDonald; six brothers, Bernard, Alfred, Howard, John, Jim and Bill Samblanet.
