Who was Theresa Palmgren?
Theresa was born, raised, and graduated from Skyline High School in Idaho Falls in 1999. She was a proud Vandal student at the University of Idaho where she majored in visual communication before graduating in 2003.
She occasionally worked for Local News 8 in Idaho Falls after school, and after graduation, she worked as a freelance photographer for the Idaho Falls Post Register. She relocated to Spokane, Washington, in 2004 and worked as a photographer and editor for KREM 2 News.
She began working as a photographer and video editor for KTVB in Boise in 2005. Theresa’s unflagging optimism, generosity, and empathy will be remembered most for these qualities. She adored all animals, but especially dogs. Her “children” were the adored Peaches and Bandit.
Only last Autumn, a bandit crossed the “Rainbow Bridge.” She particularly enjoyed covering events for the Idaho Humane Society and the annual Pooch Party Walk & Swim held by Nampa Parks and Recreation, where she occasionally brought her own cherished Bandit.
Theresa’s coworkers talked about their interactions with her, including one time when she was accidentally tackled and mildly hurt while filming a high school football game. She completed her duty after stopping by a neighboring clinic, and returning to the station with a bandaged forehead. Her main worry was making sure her camera gear was undamaged.
Another story was shared about a time she and a colleague were live-broadcasting from a hot air balloon floating above downtown Boise during the Spirit of Boise Balloon Classic. Following the conclusion of the live broadcast, the balloon was forced to make a hard landing at a nearby sports field, where it toppled over and crashed into a fence. Theresa ended herself at the bottom of the toppled basket, tenaciously guarding her camera from harm, but neither she nor her KTVB coworker nor the balloonist were hurt.
