Date: May 12, 2020

Margery Anna (Maxwell) Teggi, 93, passed away peacefully on May 7, 2020. She was born April 2, 1927 in Great Barrington, the daughter of Philo and Grace (Proper) Maxwell.

Margery was predeceased by her husband, Thomas Teggi. They were married on October 6, 1951 and shared a wonderful 61 years of marriage.

Margery attended schools in Great Barrington and was a graduate of Searles High School (1945) and Berkshire Business School.

She was the office manager for Home Gas prior to having her children. She returned to the work force as an administrative executive for the Great Barrington Housing Authority. Margery worked for the Berkshire Hills School District at Monument Mountain Regional High School for many years. She enjoyed working with the students and the teachers.

Margery’s interest largely centered around her family and friends, here and in Boynton Beach, Florida. She enjoyed her “snowbird trips” to her Florida home right up until two years ago. She was a kind and loving woman whose generosity knew no bounds.

Margery is survived by her four children Patricia (Brian) Gormley, Thomas (Barbara) Teggi, Mark (Valerie) Teggi and Jack Teggi, eight grandchildren Brianne (Fred), Thomas, Jill (Keith), Courtney, Bridget, Robert, Mark (Amber), Theresa (Austin) and two great grandchildren Nolan and Aubree.

    My condolences for the loss of your mom. My thoughts are with you in this time of great sadness
    I knew your mother mostly from my somewhat frequent visits to the “office” to have a visit with vice principal Kate McDermott. Your mom was always respectful to me although none was deserved. Her smile and warmth made the day better for all who were blessed to know her.
