1967 - 2022

Theresa was born In Kingston, Ontario on November 8, 1967. She grew up on the family farm in Petworth, Ontario. Theresa attended Guelph University where she obtained her B.A. degree with honours followed by Western Ontario University for her teaching degree. During this time she also spent a total of two years living in Spain immersed in the language and culture.

In the early 90's Theresa gave her life to the LORD and from that point on she was dedicated to loving God and loving people. She was called to the mission field and joined a Central America bound Mercy Ships where she met Kathia Montes. There, her Spanish skills were put to God's use. 

Theresa moved west to Olds with her family in 2002 where she met and married Ian Conklin in 2006 and became Nana T. In 2019 Theresa completed her Registered Massage Therapist Certification and started her practice where she will be sorely missed by her patients and fellow workers.

Theresa is lovingly remembered by her mother, Margaret Oliver; ex-husband, Ian Conklin; grandchildren, Grace, Isabel, and Olivia; brother Andrew (Marlene); and numerous beloved nieces and nephews.  She was predeceased by her father, Jim Oliver and both sets of grandparents.

A Memorial Service will be held for Theresa at New Hope Fellowship; 5014 - 49th Street, Olds, AB, on Saturday, August 6, 2022 at 1:30 PM.  In lieu of flowers donations can be made to New Hope Fellowship indicating for Kathia Montes, Missionary in Costa Rica.

The family would like to thank the caring staff at the Olds Hospital for the wonderful way they looked after Theresa and the friends and family who cared for and supported her throughout this journey. Messages of condolence may be left for the family at www.myalternatives.ca.
