Oh Cliff! I was so shocked to hear your wonderful T.C. passed away. Philip contacted Tyler the day it happened and we both just sat there stunned. She was ALWAYS so sweet and fun to be around. Teresa gave off such a wonderful energy to everyone she was in front of! I loved the talks Teresa and I used to have. We loved being your neighbors and Tyler and Philip have always shared a special bond, even after we moved away, and that bond is still there. Teresa was so devoted to you, Becca and Philip! Even though it was time for God to call her home, (and she is in THE BEST place), that doesn't take away from your heartache. Lean into God's strength in the days to come! He WILL sustain you! We are just a phone call away, if you need anything (even if Philip just wants Tyler to come and hang with him). We're here!
