Teresa James

Never met Maj. James but Im impressed and grateful for her service. RIP

She was my Great Aunt Tutu, the most amazing women I knew. There's not a day that goes by that i dnt think about you. The last rosary you gave me hangs on my rear view mirror. I tell my kids about how amazing there Great Great Aunt Teresa was. I tell them thats y there is 2 Greats n front of her name. In thats still not enough. I love you n miss you so much. Forever n our hearts. Love Jessica James

Always n my heart I will never forget you. I love you Aunt Tutu and miss you dearly.

Hey girl ... how ya doin' up there? No more rattlin' the rosaries, huh. Tell the gang Hi for me will ya! I miss you like the devil.

I am so sad to discover so long after the fact my dear TJ is gone on to better things. I had more fun being her 'personal pilot' and friend than words can say. She was a most special person and this world loses much without her presence. Blue skies and CAVU woman.. we shall meet again, of that I have not doubt.

I watched an American Experince DVD just today and discovered that after WWII Teresa had been a bush pilot in Alaska. I was in Public Health way after she was a pilot, but depended on bush pilots to get me to villages. She sounded like a great and courageous lady!

My father was in the Civil Air Patrol in Allegheny County, Pa. (F. F. Versaw) He flew out of a small airport where we as a family would go to watch him fly. I remember times from 1938 to 1945 sitting at that airport and hearing the name Teresa James who my father flew with and knew. Did Betty also fly as a remember a time when she received her license at the airport. Now you must remember, I was probably 8 at the time and am now 78 a long time ago and a lot of childhood memories surfacing....
