Not sure what to say?

Teresa's first anniversary is this week and there are often things that come up in my life that remind me of her love and influence. Aren't we lucky to have persons like her in our lives!

Happy Birthday, Teresa. We miss you!

Sr. Teresa was an inspiration to me throughout her life but most definitely in the way that she lived her last days. She was an example of courage to me and to all her friends and colleagues at Mercy Health System. This year the Mercy Courage Awards Dinner on April 5th will be dedicated to Teresa for her courageous spirit that gave life to so many.

Teresa obviously left a profound effect on all who knew her, which is evidenced in these passages..
I am blessed to have been a small part of her life....She was a true inspiration and role model.
Tess,thank you for being such an inspiration to me personally and for giving all who knew you, your true self.

'am missing Teresa more as the days pass. Her courage during the last months was a real edification. The devotion of her friends helped me to remember what a friend she was to those she loved. I continue to pray for heer and all who loved her.
Thanks for this opportunity.

The alumni of Cardinal O'Hara High School back in the 60's send our deepest sympathy to The McGhee Family and the Sistes of Mercy.

May she rest in peace.

It was a grace to share time with Teresa Mary last year. She taught me how she used her chemo visits as an experience of ministry. She continues to inspire me even at a distance. What a gift to so many, especially our Mercy community. Kathleen McAlpin, RSM

I am Sister Teresa Mary's "Our Louise" and I want to thank her for sharing her life with me and my family. Teresa, I know you loved me and loved my family and I pray to God that you knew how much I loved you. I have always been an orphan but with your passing I really feel like an orphan.If possible, I would like you to be my Guardian Angel. Rest, till we meet again. Love, Louise

Sister Teresa McGhee was a wonderful friend of many, many years to my mother, Hannah DeLany. My mother spoke of her often, and everything she said pointed to what a wonderful person Sister was. My mother passed on two years ago. But I wanted her family to know how much I appreciate the friendship Sister Teresa extended to my mother.
