Aunt Theresa will be missed dearly. The world has lost an Angel on earth. She is back with Our Heavenly Father and watching over us.

I'll never forget all the times we spent together growing up. All the fun we had Making Christmas eve dinner, Easter pies, pizzelles.

All the laughter we shared, the stories we told, and the time spent together will live on in our hearts...until we meet again.

There are a few really funny stories to share. Our conference calls were always a treat with us all laughing to the point we couln't hear what anyone was saying.
Crabfeasts...do I need to say more than that? Don't worry Aunt Theresa...we will carry on that tradition and I will NOT try to sneak crabs on the table when the sandwiches come out.

You are missed dearly.
We love you !

Love and Prayers
