Terrie and Melba were my sisters from another Mother while we were at Pratt and far beyond! They treated me as if I as were truly their brother ( oh the abuse). I will forever value "T"s influence on my life and her lifelong friendship. Larry

It still seems surreal to think that Theresa is no longer with us, here on earth. Thankfully, we will always have the memory of her beautiful smile to encourage us and keep us moving forward. Theresa was such a wonderful person and someone I will always think of fondly. May she rest in peace...
