Teri A. Blevins, 72, of Lebanon, passed away peacefully at home on Friday, Dec. 12, 2025, surrounded by her family after a courageous battle with cancer.

Born on Sept. 11, 1953, in York, PA, Teri was the cherished daughter of the late Sterling and Anna Bankert. She earned her degree in medical assisting and transcription and devoted many years to her career with care and dedication.

Teri’s greatest joy was her family. She is survived by her daughter, Laura English; and son-in-law, Bill English. Her love and laughter live on through her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, Caleb English, Gavin English, Laylani Rios, Layla English, and Jalen English.

Those who knew Teri will remember her as a true friend and a bright spirit—always ready with encouragement, a warm smile, and maybe a shopping trip or a homemade treat. She was a talented quilter, an amazing baker, and the ultimate cheerleader for those she loved. Teri adored time in the mountains or at the beach, and nothing made her happier than hopping on the back of a four-wheeler and soaking up life’s adventures.

Teri fought cancer with incredible strength and pride, celebrating the milestone of ringing “the bell” in July 2024. Her tenacity, kindness, and zest for life will never be forgotten.

A celebration of life will be held after the holiday season. Thompson Funeral Home Inc. is entrusted with the arrangements. The family welcomes your memories and messages in Thompson Funeral Home’s online guest book at thompsonfuneralhomelebanon.com.
