Theresa Albright Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Bishop-Hastings Funeral Home - Selbyville on Mar. 10, 2026.
Theresa Albright, lovingly known as Terry by her friends, of Ocean City, Maryland, passed away on February 28, 2026, at the age of 70. She was born on July 24, 1955, in Washington, D.C., to Joseph Cagliostro and Joan (Heck) Cagliostro.

Early in her career, Terry earned a Medical Assistant diploma from the Georgetown School of Science and Arts. She later became a LPN and devoted many years to caring for patients in medical practices. In later years, Terry worked at OC Hair & Nail Studio, where her cheerful smile and warm personality brightened the days of both coworkers and clients.

Terry found joy in life's simple pleasures. She loved tending her garden, growing vegetables and herbs, and was known as an excellent cook who enjoyed sharing meals with family and friends. She also loved birdwatching, was an enthusiastic supporter of Washington football and treasured the time she spent with family and friends.

A member of the Elks Lodge and the American Legion, Terry formed many lasting friendships and was deeply connected to her community. She will be remembered for her kindness, generosity, and the warmth she brought to those around her. Terry's kind heart and friendly smile will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

Terry was preceded in death by her parents, Joseph Cagliostro and Joan (Heck) Cagliostro, and her husband, Rodney Albright.

She is survived by her beloved and caring partner, Richard Staehle; her devoted daughter, Tammy Donnelly (Craig); her cherished grandchildren, Olivia and Gabrielle Donnelly; and her sister, Joni Gomilla.

A service will be announced at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Worcester County Humane Society, P.O. Box 48, Berlin, MD 21811, or Coastal Hospice, P.O. Box 1733, Salisbury, MD 21802.
