Charlie: My heart goes out to you and Michael. Terry was such a great human being who was well-respected and well-like by everyone whose life she touched. I was heart sick when I learned of Terry's passing; she was much too young and again -- my heart goes out to you and Michael. From her softball days to becoming a wonderful wife, marvelous mom and restaurant owner, she enriched the lives of a lot of people, just like her late dad -- Angelo Pastore -- did for many a moon. Although Terry's passing is tragic, I'm absolutely thrilled, that they'll be starting a scholarship in her honor and memory. Again, I'm sorry for your sudden loss and with that may God Bless you and yours -- always.
With my deepest sympathy, Pete Fontaine
