Tess was such a kind woman. She was at the high school, when I went there. I had some emotional times, and she was always so good to me. She was definitely one of the angels among us. God Bless You.

Tom,

Your mother was a lovely lady and a tremendous colleague. She made a real difference at the high school and to so many students and staff. But for Tess, her family was always first and foremost. Please accept my deepest sympathy.

Tess was my Dad's neighbor, in Scituate. Tess was affectionatelt called the Mayor of Seagull Lane. She was friendly, upbeat, and wonderful to all. She also remembered my kids on every Halloween as I would take them to Grampy street. I was surprised and saddened to read of her death. Even though we now live in Michigan, we have thought of her often. Learning of her death meant a sad day for us. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family!
