Dear Family of Theresa Derrico,
I am the daughter of Annette Riedel who was in either the Pilgrims Senior Citizens group or through Visitation. When my mother became sick several years ago and was in rehab, Theresa would call me faithfully every Sunday evening to find out how my mother was doing. After updating Mrs. Derricio about my mother, our conversations would drift to other topics, which I enjoyed very much. I looked forward to our weekly conversations. I am very sorry to hear of Mrs. Derrico's passing. Wow, 91 years, we should all be so lucky. Peggy (Riedel) Koch
