Not sure what to say?

I was very sad to hear about Theresa’s passing. I’ve known “T” for a long time starting with when we both grew up as risk managers while working for different companies. I always hung out with Teresa when we traveled to different states to get our Risk Management certifications. There are two funny memories that stick out in my mind. One was when we were in San Francisco and I had some cotton stuck in my ear. I put cotton in my ears because it was so windy and cold . Teresa had to dig...

I was so sorry to hear this. I worked with Theresa for many years at University Hospital and had so much respect for her. My deepest sympathy to her family.

I was blessed to have Terri not only as my cousin but most importantly, as my friend. Terri cared for people her entire life. Through being a nurse, in risk management, as a mom, wife, sister and daughter, she was always helping others. There wasn´t a single conversation we had that did not include her talking about her sons & husband and of course, Aunt Dee. She worried about her brothers, their wives & children and was always doing something to make someone else´s life better. Terri´s...

I worked with her at Upstate over many years and ALWAYS took her advice because it was always right! She had a wonderful way of honoring others' opinions while making sure that the right thing got done, and always with compassion.

My deepest condolences to Pat, Laurence, and Ernie. Terri was always so kind to the us kids growing up in Syracuse and I know she will be dearly missed.

I’m so saddened by Theresa’s passing. We worked together for many years at Upstate, but became even closer friends after I retired. I’m so sorry she didn’t get to enjoy her retirement. Thoughts and prayers go out to Ernie and the rest of the family.

To Ernie, Patrick, Mom and all the Rioux family, my heart is breaking for you. This day comes too soon and is a sad ending to such a beautiful person's life.
Theresa was an amazing woman to know and love for all of us. Our 40 year friendship started in New Orleans and never ended. The memorie will always be burned in my heart as some of the most special moments two friends could have. If only they could have continued to grow for all of us.




I had the privelege to meet Theresa when our sons went to MHR school. She was very easy to get to know and we hit it off right away. Theresa was very bright and candid and funny. Though I wanted to see her again since she retired, we hadn't seen each other in a while. I'm so saddened to know she's gone. God Bless you, Theresa and may the Lord welcome you home, dear friend. Condolences to the family.

My condolences to Ernie and their sons for their loss.
