It seems like I just talked to Aunt Theresa like it was yesterday. I will miss her so much. I will never forget her wit and smile that always kept us laughing. Especially when Aunt Theresa got together with my Grandma (Frances Schuch). They were so funny together. My deepest sympathies go out to your family. The Carlton's
