Theresa Ann (Fluty) Roller

Theresa Ann Roller, 66, went to be with the Lord on Friday August 23rd, 2024. Theresa was born in Beech Grove on April 30, 1958, to her parents J.E. Fluty and Gladys (Whitney) Fluty. She is preceded in death by her parents and late husband Brian Mulhern.

She attended Lawrence Central High school, graduating in 1976. Theresa retired from the City of Lawrence police department as a 911 dispatcher after 20 plus years of service.

Theresa's interest in life included attending Grace Way Fellowship Church where she was a faithful member. She was a tenacious gamer playing her favorite game, "Words with Friends". Theresa loved shopping and buying shoes. She loved retirement and enjoyed vacationing in Florida. Many evenings Theresa would read her Bible then post an inspirational comment on Facebook that would bless many people. 

Theresa shared this post on Facebook:

"While grief is a journey common to all, no one can tell you exactly how you should grieve because it is a personal path unique to everyone who walks it. And there's no single right way to grieve. However, understanding how grief works and what influences it will better prepare you for what you encounter after a loss. The Bible reveals a pathway through times of loss that leads to higher ground. This experience, which often feels like death, is the perilous path through the valley of the shadow that David spoke of in Psalm 23:4. This Psalm reminds us, 'Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.' The Good Shepherd reliably guides us through the valley of tears. He quiets our fears, comforts our hearts, and reassures us that we will make it through. Lord, bless all those who are facing a death of a family member or friend. I 'm gonna be moving to my Glory Land home soon!!" -Theresa Roller

Theresa was fun, loving, comical, and the most honest person you would want to meet. Theresa cherished her family. 

Theresa leaves behind her loving husband Pastor Tim Roller, son Joshua (Valerie) Clements, daughter Kyla (Julius) Mapalad; grandchildren Vanessa Clements (Tyler Wiegand), Addison and J.J. Mapalad; sister Rita (Ron) Gee; nephews Robbie (Kristin) Gee, Rodney (Jessica) Gee and great nephews and nieces. Stepchildren Misty (Richard) Black, Sarah (Andy) Barker, Tim (Jessica) Roller II and children.
