My Sweetheart of a cousin Pam,
When I got the news it was truly bittersweet. I'm so thankful for the time I spent with Cousin Teddy during the holidays when I was home. She was another link to my heart of hearts "my mother". What a joyous time they are having together again BOTH now looking down on us. Cousin Teddy is resting in the arms of the MASTER. Her presence will be truly missed but her spirit and legacy of family and love never ever forgotten. Love to the family. ~Dianne Spencer~
