I loved Aunt Tessie with all my heart. She was funny, smart, quick, loving, and she always embraced life fully- plus she did it all with such style! I feel a hole in my heart right now, so I can't even begin to imagine how you all feel. Please know that you have my and my family's deepest sympathy and love. The world just won't be the same without her.
Much love,
Patti, Brian, Sara and Emily

Dear Ed and Gina:
It was a pleasure knowing Tess as I did although not as long as some of your friends and acquaintes'. She seemed to have a good sense of humor and loved to tell a story. It was apparent to me that her grandchildren loved her and now will be missed by them.
May God be your strength through this very difficult time and may He put his loving arems around you. You can rest assured that Tess was welcomed into Heaven with open arms.
Love and Prayers,
Darlene L. Martin
