Not sure what to say?

Thinking of my dear Auntie Therese and her legacy. Her daughters played such an important role in my life growing up when they came to live with my family over the summers. This connection between our families was a strong one in this way and so I felt close to her and Uncle Leo because of it. She was the oldest living sibling of my grandmother and she held the family legacy in that way as well. I feel blessed for her many years with us. Sending love to her daughters and grandchildren.

My sincere condolences to my cousins in the loss of dear Aunt Therese. I have so many memories of her while growing up. She was talented with music, playing the piano and singing, cooking, baking and sewing. I remember her sewing Barbie clothes for my sister and I! She lived a long life and outlived all her siblings. I hope she is at rest and eating ice cream with her siblings!

Dear Mary & Family,
Your beautiful mom will be missed I always enjoyed seeing her when visiting my mom, my mom will certainly miss her as they sat together encouraging each other to eat and they both loved their ice cream! You all were blessed to have her in your life as long as you did. God bless
