Terry Ann
(Talotta) Russo
Nov 16, 1952 — Mar 25, 2025
Terry Ann Russo (Talotta) passed away peacefully on March 22, 2025, at the age of 72. Born on November 16, 1952, in Philadelphia to Ann (Kennedy) and Ralph "Pat" Talotta, she spent much of her life in Bethlehem, PA, where she built a career, a family, and a community of dear friends. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Dr. Robert Russo, in 2018.
Terry was known for her sharp wit, boundless curiosity, and an eye for life's hidden treasures—whether in an antique shop or the pages of a good book. She found joy in gardening, reading, and even playing video games, but her true calling was in medicine. As a dedicated Physician Assistant, she not only cared for patients but also shaped the future of the profession. From 1997 to 2018, she served as a faculty member at the DeSales University Physician Assistant Program, where she mentored and inspired countless students.
Above all, Terry cherished her family. She is survived by her loving daughter, Brianna McGraw, and her husband, Ryan; her devoted sisters and lifelong best friends, Coleen Seng and her husband, Greg, and Tina Folland; her adored granddaughter, as well as many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends who will miss her deeply.
Family and friends are invited to celebrate Terry's life during a visitation on Monday, March 31, 2025, at Cantelmi Long Funeral Home, 500 Linden Street, Bethlehem, PA 18018, from 5:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M.
