Teresa Rader Giuliani

Teresa Rader Giuliani, age 58, passed away at home Sunday evening January 31, 2021, from complications of breast cancer. Teresa was surrounded by people who loved her.
She was also in the thoughts and prayers of her many beloved friends and neighbors who have selflessly supported her during her extended illness. For this, her husband Mark is truly thankful.

Born in Nashville, Teresa met her husband of 36 years, Mark, in college at UT Knoxville where she earned a degree in Fashion Merchandising. After his Air Force service, they decided to return to the Knoxville area, where Teresa continued her career as a buyer and then customs expeditor. Teresa displayed her artistic talent thru pottery, sewing, crocheting, and painting. Her creations will remain as constant reminders of Teresa’s love and generosity to her husband, family, and friends.
Teresa always had a special place in her heart for animals, especially the four rescue dogs she had throughout her adult life. She always enjoyed walking them since it gave her the opportunity to spend time with her many friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Roy and Dorothy Rader and survived by her husband Mark, sisters LeAnne (Aaron) Snider, Claudia (John) Paul, Kathilu (Mitchel) Mote and brothers Herby (Pam) Rader, Larry (Karen) Rader and many nieces and nephews.

A private Celebration of Teresa’s Life will be held later. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to your local animal shelter or to the Cancer Support Community of East Tennessee (www.CancerSupportET.org).
