I met Teresa through mutual friends. She had a sophisticated charm about her that I enjoyed. She was awesome at cooking,decorating and arts and crafts. She was also very wise and gave me some good advice. She loved her camping too. She talked of her nieces like they were her own children and loved them dearly. I hope they know she will be watching over them. Rest easy Teresa. I know you and Judy are having a good ol' time up in heaven.

You know its so hard to understand why we have to say goodbye. So I will say this. There is no reason to but upset with god as to why you took her from us. But maybe wonder why we are left behine. I know this that one day I will stand beside her again and all the other people i lost in my life. I will truly miss you for the rest of my life.

I entered into Teresa'a life in the spring of 1965. As Jay's wife she became the little sister I never had. I watched her grow up and become a loving adult. I always began my conversations with "Hello my precious
little Teresa" I hold few people close to my heart and she was one. There is now a whole that can never be filled again. Rest well, I will always miss you and love you.

I entered into Teresa's life in the spring of 1965. As Jay's wife she was the little sister I never had. I watched her grow up and I always said to her "Hello my precious little Teresa". She knew I loved her so. There is a whole in my heart now. There are few people I have held dear to my heart and I will miss her deeply. Until we meet again I love you.

Teresa was my best friend, I will truly miss her. She was a talented and fun person to be with. She loved wine and her talent for art and crafts brought out the best in her. She loved dressing up and applying makeup to entertain her nieces and family as a witch for Halloween parties. She loved her best friend Dennis Oberhausen who took care of her faithfully during her struggle with cancer. Bless you Dennis.
She loved her nieces and enjoyed making things for them with her talents. She always talked about her vacations with her sister and family.
We have all lost a good person .I love you Teresa, I'll be looking for you in heaven when my time has come . Judith Searcy
