In Memory of Teri Krug

Theresa (Teri) Krug passed away on April 10, 2026 after a courageous 16-year battle with cancer. Teri was initially diagnosed in 2010 with non-small cell lung cancer, and entered remission in 2011. In 2022, after moving to Florida, her doctors discovered a tumor in her brain, which was treated with a gamma knife procedure. Teri again went into remission, and was monitored with regular screenings. In early 2026, she was diagnosed with Leptomeningeal metastasis, as her cancer had spread to her cerebral spinal fluid, and ultimately led to her passing.

Teri was known for her strong will, sense of humor, her generous heart, and her unwavering kindness. She was always ready to lend a hand, offer support, or simply share her warmth with those around her. Her infectious laugh could brighten any room, and her presence brought comfort to so many. She found happiness in life’s simple pleasures: admiring the beauty of the beach from afar, skiing in the winter, weekly card games with friends, and spending decades playing tennis at the West Nyack Swim Club and Nyack Field Club. These moments reflected her spirited nature and her appreciation for joy, friendship, and adventure.

Teri will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved her. Her memory will live on in the family she treasured, the lives she touched, and the countless moments of laughter and love she shared. In lieu of flowers the family requests donations to support ongoing research for Leptomeningeal disease.
