It is with great sadness that we advise our readers of the passing of one of the firm’s partners Therese M. Connell, CPA (Tese) at the age of sixty five, after a lengthy illness.
When we think of and remember Tese in both her personal and professional life, the words that best describe her are “role model”. Her commitment to honesty, integrity, fair dealing and client service combined with her passion for technical excellence made her not only a role model but a CPA’s CPA. Tese was recognized throughout Southern New Jersey as an expert in the fields of estate planning, estate and trust taxation, gifting, and estate administration. She routinely worked with area attorneys in the development and implementation of cutting edge estate planning and asset protection planning.
Tese was also a teacher and mentor who devoted countless hours to the education and training of the members of our firm, with her legacy being a group of professionals within our firm who are well prepared to serve our clients in her areas of specialization.
Please keep Tese and her family in your thoughts and prayers.
