I would like to send my deepest sympathy on Teresa's passing to all of her family. I had the opportunity to work with Teresa occasionally over the last 5 years and I admired greatly. She always was willing to give of her time and knowledge and she always made me laugh. She will be greatly missed by her friends in Canada

Rex, Andi and family, it was with great sadness that I heard of Teresa's passing. Teresa was my "go to" person when I worked with her at Paradigm, and she kindly made herself and her incredible intellect available to answer my many stupid questions. I have fond memories of sharing Company times with her at the Excalibur user meeting in the mountains....May I express my heartfelt condolences to you and yours.

Teresa, even though we were never able to actually meet in person, I loved you like a sister. What man put asunder here on Earth, God will join together in Heaven. My heart aches for the "missed opportunities", but we have the assurance that "all things work together for good for those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose". Now rest in His loving arms, Sis, and I will see you in His time. I love you!!

I've worked with Teresa for the past 11 years but it's been the past 6 years working in the Tromso department that I really got to know her. She was absolutely brilliant but always willing to explain things in ways that the less brilliant could understand. She wasn't a programmer, but used to find programming problems in the code and just give me a printout with the correction marked in pen (she never used pencil). She's left a huge hole in our department, both professionally and personally. She made coming to work more enjoyable. She is missed.

Rex, Kathy and the rest of your families...Sonja and Susan managed to reach us as we're on vacation. I am deeply saddened by Teresa's passing. I have many fond memories of her in Colorado as well as in Dallas-she was the one who talked me into moving! Please accept our deepest sympathies. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you now.

I’ve had the privilege of working with Teresa for over six years. We spent many month-ends at our client, where after more than 24 hours of straight work and no sleep, Teresa was as dedicated to ‘getting it right’ as she was during the first hour. As a role model, she set the bar extremely high and I know I have learned more, and worked harder due to her dedication. Teresa could make the most complex concept crystal clear. As a friend, Teresa took the time to listen, and was never shy about telling you how she saw things. I greatly valued her honesty. During her last weeks, she made a huge effort to show her support to my daughter and me. I’m honored to have known her, and will miss her brilliance greatly.

Rex and Family, although I did not know Teresa well, I enjoyed speaking with her at family activities and was looking forward to a family summer picnic we spoke about. The day I heard of her passing, I was at my cabin, and I thought of her as I watched one of the most glorious of sunsets here. I will remember that beauty when I think of her and still intend to plan that picnic. Family is so dear. My sympathies to you for such a brief time with someone you loved. Carole Bieshaar

Dear Family:
Teresa was my co-worker for five years at P2ES. She was an outstanding individual with a great smile and a wonderful outlook on life. Teresa was always ready to lend a hand to help others. Her smile and laughter is legendary here at P2ES, and we shall all miss her a great deal. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of sorrow.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you Rex and family. Teresa was not just brilliant, but funny and kind as well. Much too young to leave this world, but she's another life yet to follow.

Rex…
I am so sorry for your loss. Teresa was a great person and it’s been my privilege to consider her a friend. We’ve logged lots of hours together during the projects and she always gave us the right guidance, strove to ensure there was a common understanding but most importantly she could always made me laugh. I knew I could count on her and she never let me down. I will miss her and I feel lucky to have known her.

I was shocked at hearing her diagnosis several months ago, and so very sorry to hear of her passing. I want you to know how much she meant to those of us whose lives were brightened by her smile. She was an amazing person to be around. Although I did not have the opportunity to work with her closely, just the brief times I spoke to her, I knew how lucky I would be if we did work on a project together.
Let a Dream Catcher fill the hole in your heart, to catch all the happy memories.
Thinking of you and your family!

All the my memories of Theresa are wonderful. She and I and Rex and my husband Conrad we golfing partners for the last five years at our company golf tourney. I am not a good golfer but she always took time to help me. Which meant hitting the ball down the course and letting me play her ball. She had a wonderful putt. We always had a blast with her and she and I shared many great laughs. I always sneaked behind the sceen to make sure we got to play with them every year. I feel such a sence of loss right now - You are missed my friend.
Take care and know my thoughts are with you all.

She was one of the sweetest ladies I have known. She was a lot of fun and good times. We played softball together. She was one hell of a player. She had a great sense of humor too. She will definitely be missed. She was taken from us way too early in life. One tough lady!

I would like to take the time to express my families deepest condolences for Teresa's family during this very difficult time.

I had the honor of getting to know Teresa the last few years and will always remember how loving and friendly she always was. It didn't matter if she was playing a round of golf, playing a hand of cards at company holiday parties, or just relaxing with her family and friends, she always had a very special way of making people feel important. She truly had an infectious smile and laugh and I will always treasure these moments I had with Teresa and a family that has meant the world to me over the years.

Our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with Teresa and all of her family and friends through this time.
