Teresa Underwood Harwell

Teresa Underwood Crawford Harwell, age 55 of Louisville, formerly of South Knoxville, lost her battle with cancer on Thursday, November 15, 2018 at her home. She was currently employed by Friedman’s Appliances and was a former employee of Appliance City. She was a Christian and a member of Asbury United Methodist Church. Teresa had an infectious, laughing smile and a positive attitude. She accepted everyone as they were, never met a stranger, never passed up a Girl Scout cookie sale, and was an avid University of Kentucky fan like her father. She was a graduate of Doyle High School and loved South-Doyle High School band and football. She also loved travel, camping, and had a blast on her first cruise in May. She was passionate about reading, music concerts, Dollywood, and Elvis. Her grandson Henry always brought a smile to her face.
