After fighting cancer, Teresa Leatherbarrow, an advocate for education, passed away.

Williamsville Central School laments the passing of a generous and devoted supporter of education. At the age of 46, Teresa Leatherbarrow died away.

Teresa Anne (nee O’Connor) Leatherbarrow passed away on March 11, 2023, at the age of 46. She was the beloved wife of Jack Leatherbarrow and the devoted mother of Serena, Sam, and Maggie Leatherbarrow.

Teresa was the dearest daughter of Kenneth and Maureen (nee Daley) O’Connor and the devoted sister of Joseph (Karisa) O’Connor, Elizabeth (David) Vasquez, and Kevin (Natalie).

A memorial service will be conducted at 10 AM on Thursday, March 16th at the (Amherst Chapel) AMIGONE FUNERAL HOME, INC., 5200 Sheridan Drive (corner Hopkins Road), where the family will be present on Wednesday, March 15th from 2-4 and 7-9 PM.

I am so sorry our community has lost the fierce, kind, committed, and often hilarious education advocate Teresa Leatherbarrow. I am proud to have fought along side her and so many other amazing people to demand meaningful assessment, student-centered curriculum, equitable educational opportunities, and to end punitive, corporate standardized testing. Teresa lived a life of generous service. She will be deeply and profoundly missed.
