Obituary

Teresa M. Choman, 85, died peacefully on January 18, 2021, at Princeton Hospital after a valiant fight against COVID-19.  Born in Toronto, Canada, Teresa was raised in Pennsylvania, and her home town was Schuykill Haven, where her parents Nat and Pauline Burachock owned a florist shop.  She was preceded in death by her husband, Bohdan "Dan" Choman, in 2012; they were married for 57 years, and had two sons and four grandchildren.

Terri, as she was called by family and friends, was an elementary school teacher for 20 years in Oradell, New Jersey, before moving to Princeton, where she was a substitute teacher for several more years. She also volunteered at Princeton Hospital for many years, helping staff and patients at the front desk and in the library.

Terri was quite active at her parish, St. Paul's of Princeton, where she was a member of the Knitting Ministry and Rosary Club. She and her husband also volunteered with the Loaves and Fishes Ministry.  Terri loved to read books, and belonged to a book club with her good friends in the Princeton Walk neighborhood, where she lived since 1990.  She also liked swimming with a group of friends called the Mermaids.

She is survived by her two sons, Nicholas and Thomas Choman; four grandchildren, Sarah, Christie, Matthew, and Nicholas Choman; her sister, Maryann Biemuller; and many nieces and nephews. They and many of her other relatives and friends will greatly miss her caring, giving, and beautiful spirit.

A funeral mass was held at St. Paul Parish in Princeton on Friday, January 22, 2021 followed by  burial in Princeton Cemetery.

Please make a donation to the Alzheimer's Association (act.alz.org) in her memory.
