Aunt Teresa,
I am happy to know that you are finally at rest now, and with those who have moved on before you. I'm glad I got to see you at Jeffrey's graduation party, after having been so long since the last time we saw one another. You were a tough cookie here on earth, and although we had our differences, i have always loved you. You were my auntie, and I will never forget you. You raised a strong daughter in Stephanie, and I know she will take a piece of you with her through life. There were many ups, and even more downs, but you stood strong through it all, and for that you will be missed by all who knew and loved you. Sleep tight, and until we meet again, Teresa, I love you!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived
okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here
is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you
every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up
and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were
gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.

There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for
me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's
chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life
on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not
be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.


I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But
one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.


There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a
time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will
give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day
was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the
way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick
him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in
your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember
you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I thank GOD that you are out of your pain and at peace with GOD in heaven.
Now you are flying with the eagles. You are my now my Guardian Angel.

Teresa ever since GOD put us together on Christmas Day 2007 we have helped each other more than anyone will ever know. You became my best friend, my confidante, and my soul mate. I will miss you here on earth but your spirit will live on with in me in my heart and soul.

I will always cherish the time that we were together helping each other. I will always be both Rebecca Jeen and Ralph John McDonald. You helped me to accept and cherish who I am and I cherished you for who you are.

I knew Theresa for only a short time but we became friends immediately. I am glad I had the opportunity to get to know her and that when I spoke to her last she was in good spirits. My thoughts and prayers are with her family, especially her daughter who she talked about so lovingly.
