Ed, Paul, and Matt.
I too will miss Terese greatly. She was a great girl and lady. I have many great memories of living with her and Noreen in the two Lewis houses in Hollister in the 40s and early 50s. She was a class act even as a young girl and lady. I knew she was a saint when she taught me to drive her stick shift car on the hills of SF in 1954. She had her Purgatory then.
