The Carrazco Family sends their most deepest condolences to Teresa's entire family. You are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Teresa was such a beautiful soul with a deep faith and love for God, her family, and St. Stanislaus Kostka Parish. She volunteered her time in taking such care of the flowers and parish with much love. She was a beautiful woman inside and out who was always kind and welcoming to all who encountered her and knew her. She always greeted my mom and I with her beautiful and kind smile as we came to the 10 AM Sunday Mass, assuring me of her prayers for my parents. This meant so much to me! The loss of Teresa is a great loss to her family, the parish, and all of us! She will be terribly missed! May she rest in peace!
