Dear Paul and family,
I pray that our good Lord will bless you all as you grieve the loss of your dear wife and mother in the days and weeks to come! I attended Assumption Grade School with Therese for eight years. While we have not had much personal contact since 1956 as we attended different Catholic high schools, I have many fond memories of our years together. It is no surprise to me that she led such a beautiful Christian life and was so generous to others. Your description of her life in the obituary is just what I would have expected to read based on my memories of her in grade school. Our faith assures us that she is now enjoying eternal life with our dear Lord in heaven. May she rest in peace!

Dear Paul and family, I am so sorry for the loss of dear Therese. She was a beautiful lady inside and out. I am sorry that I wasn't able to keep more in touch with her and all of you, that old man time, just not enough of it. I loved her dearly, my shirttail cousin. I know what you and the kids are going through, I hope that my dear John was there to welcome her home.Please take care and keep tight, there is strength in numbers.
Love you all,
Sandie

She was like a second mom to me, and she made the only cheese cake I ever liked. I'll miss her with all my heart, but smile everytime I think of how loved she is.

Dear Paul and Family,

Our deepest sympathy to all of you.

We were so happy that we got to visit with Therese on Mon. June 30. She was my dearest friend for 60 years. We shared so much together even though many miles separated us these last 40 years. Therese was such a kind, wonderful and gentle lady. We will miss our good times toether in Florida and Crystal Lake but know she is now at rest with her Lord.

With much love,

Patrick Gaughan

A wonderful Aunt. I remember each of her houses, they were always so beautiful. She always welcomed so many people into them, filling them beyond capacity. They were never lacking because she not only kept them filled with food and drink, but so much love as well. Therese, you have left a hole here on earth, however, we know you are looking after us from above. Jay & Mike

I will miss Therese. We had such good times being on the same bowling team for years. We shared the same birth date. I'm glad I got to get to the hospital and talk to her. She was a wonderful person and friend.
