My condolences to the McGuire family, aunt Teresa was such a warm and caring person. She always had such funny stories about growing up in Maine. She will surely be missed.

My condolences to the family, my cousins. Your mother, my Aunt Teresa, was a kind woman, a good soul, and always quick with the jokes. She was also very strong--I hope we can be half as strong as she when life requites us to be. I always enjoyed Teresa's company, and I liked how she and my mom and Aunt Pat were referred to as "The Big Three," a term coined by their sister Chris during WWII after the big three world leaders (sadly now, only two remain out of a family of 10 siblings). I know that my mother was so happy to be talking to Aunt Teresa regularly on the phone during the weeks when Teresa was alone and still feeling well enough to talk--my mom will miss her a lot. I'm grateful to Joey for being there for his mom so consistently, and so lovingly, and to my cousin Mary Ann for keeping my Mom up to date on Teresa's condition once she was in the hospital. (Bobby, I know you would have been there for her with gentleness and kindness had you lived closer.) I love the photo you chose to include in this obituary--so beautiful. May Teresa rest in peace--God knows she has earned it. I'll always remember her in my prayers.

Haven't seen this wonderful lady in several years but remember her beautiful smile and even more wonderful heart. She will be missed. Carol would call her and they would laugh for hours. Goodbye to a great friend and neighbor.

To Kathy and family, I was sorry to read about the passing of your Mom. I will be thinking of you during this sad time.

To all of the McGuires-

So saddened to hear of the passing of your Mom (Wife, Grandmother). She was truly a Mill Street icon. She was always so happy and welcoming when Brian and I used to barge in your home when we were kids. I remember she was always in the kitchen and she always had a funny story to share...usually about one of her kids and one of their latest escapades.

Hoping you all may find some comfort in the memories you have of her. For when someone you love becomes a memory, that memory become a treasure.

With my deepest sympathy,
