FAIRFAX, VA. – Theresa Simone-Malambri died peacefully on May 6, 2019, at Fairfax Hospital.

“Therese” was born in Youngstown, and graduated from East High School.

She worked in retail most of her adult life while in Youngstown starting at Strouss’ and working her way up as a buyer. She then went to work for Higbee’s (formerly McKeIvey’s) as a buyer and later at Dillard’s Department Store. Therese was department manager for six years in Akron. In 1988, she opened a ladies’ specialty shop named Crescendo in The Strouss Building in Youngstown. Therese also volunteered her time at the Hospice of the Valley and The Youngstown Symphony Guild.

In 1996, she married her husband, William F. Malambri Sr., a retired Warrant Officer/Band Master of the U.S. Army, then moved to Burke, Va. Her husband passed away just 11 months after their marriage.

Therese worked as an office administrator for The National School Transportation Association in Alexandria, Va. from 1999 to 2007, assisting the conference planner for annual conferences, international safety competitions, ensuring the processing of over a hundred applications annually.

Her awards include NSTA Award for Excellence-Outstanding Contribution in Transition.

After retirement, Therese worked for the Fairfax Memorial Funeral Home as a funeral assistant from 2008 till her death in May of 2019. She was also an active member at the Springfield Golf and Country Club.

Endeared by many for her caring nature, Therese was a steadfast volunteer for a number of organizations in northern Virginia. She spent seven years as treasurer for the Capital Golden Skiers, 11 years on the Board of Directors in the Keene Mill Woods Il community where she lived, and at the Church of the Nativity's Little Angel Gift Shop where she was a faithful member.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Vito and Louise Simone, brother James (Jim) Simone, brother-in-law Neil DellArco, and sister-in-law Teresa Simone.

Survivors include her brother Patrick M. Simone (Teresa) of Lorain, Ohio; sister Mary Simone-DellArco (Neil) of Youngstown; sister-in-law Margaret (James) nephew Jim Simone (Mary Ann); as well as many nieces and nephews.
