Theresa Marie "Tess" McCallen of Sharon passed away Sunday morning, March 28, 2021, in her home following an extended illness.  She was 76.

Tess was born August 8, 1944, in Sharon, a daughter of the late Ira J. and Helen M. (Logan) Ogden.  She was a lifelong Sharon resident and a 1962 graduate of Sharon High School.

Through the years she was employed by Kraynak's, Juniper Village, Lordstown Motors and Sharon Steel.

Tess was a devout Catholic and a lifetime member of St. Joseph Church, Sharon, where she served as a Eucharistic Minister and was on the hospitality committee as a greeter.  She was also a weekly participant in the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.  Very proud of her Irish heritage, Tess was a member of the Sisterhood of Erin and the Ancient Order of Hibernians and loved celebrating St. Patrick's Day.  She also enjoyed Buhl Day, traveling, boating, tending to her yard and the many animals she adopted throughout the years.  Tess' kindness and compassion will be missed by her family, friends and neighbors whom she cared for during her lifetime.

Her husband of 21 years, John W. McCallen, passed away July 29, 2008.

McCallen, of Hermitage; five grandchildren, Aislinn, Maxim, Gwynne, Davin and Taylor; two great grandchildren; a sister, Mary Ann Cagno, of Hermitage; many loving nieces and nephews; and her loving companion of 12 years, Michael Blance, who was very instrumental in caring for Tess the past few years.
