Paul & Joanne,
I was saddened to her that Theresa had passed away. I have such wonderful memories of her and all the great times we had growing up on Seward Rd. Your mom was so special to Gerry and me, especially when our mom was sick. Theresa took care of us as if we were one of her own. I was away last week and was not able to attend the services. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.
May God Bless and watch over you.

Paul, Joanne, and Curt,
Just wanted to say I am very sorry for your loss. Theresa was quite a character (and I mean that in the best of ways), and you guys took such great care of her, it really showed through. I think of her and you guys often. Take care.

Paul and Joanne,
I heard about your loss through an email from my sister. Sorry I can not attend. But my thoughts are with you. Your mom was special in many ways. I will always remember the times we had growing up in the neighborhood in Stoneham. My mom talked about her as if it were yesterday, until she passed. So in a spiritual way, they are neighbors again as it was 50+ years go.

May God be with you all.

Joanne & Paul, I was sadden to hear that Theresa passed away. I will always remember all the great times we had on Seward Rd and as you know, she was my godmother. I wish I could attend the services, however I've been in Florida since Monday and don't return until Friday night. I know she's in a better place.
God Bless you all.

Our regrets for not paying our respects in person but as we are on the Cape this week, only a call from Laura Hogan alerted us. With love, Pat
