Born on April 7, 1952, Teresa was the third child of Charles and Mary Alice (Fitzgerald) Hilfinger. She was a life-long resident of Davenport. Teresa was a proud 1970 graduate of West High School. She was united in marriage to Tom Brammann and they had two sons, Dave and Doug. Teresa had been employed in the nursing field for several years at both Ridgecrest and Oral Surgeons. She later worked for Hy-Vee for fifteen years before retiring. Teresa fought health issues for many years.

Her second marriage was to Jerry Zinn, which lasted for 33 years, only ending at her death. Teresa was also very active in "Sweet Adelines" for thirty years. She loved to sing. She will be missed by her many friends at the West Locust McDonald's where she enjoyed many afternoons visiting; along with iced tea and ice cream.
