Whenever I think of Aunt Theresa, children always come to mind. I know of no one that loved and cherished children the way she did. My children, Scott, Frank, Kim, and Justin's, first memory is how she used to escort them into the "candy room" and told them to pick what they want. Whenever we saw her she always had some little present for them that made them feel so good because they just knew wherever she went they were on her mind. Frank, as a toddler, remembers visiting her, when we came in town, on "Stump Billibard" St. She will be sadly missed. Our prayers are always with you.

I am truly saddened by the loss of Nanny. She was to me, a very special person. She gave of herself the most important gift, her time. I remember going to parades, and baseball games in a crowded a station wagon full of teenagers. She always smiled and put up with our antics. She was a joy to be around. My concolences.
