Santos Teresa Rodriguez Guzman was born on April 1, 1934, in Adjuntas, Puerto Rico. She was the eldest of eight siblings, which she helped raise with her mother and father, who instilled in her lifelong lessons.
Teresa, at the age of 20, decided to take a chance and go to New York City, where other family members had already put down roots. This is where she met the love of her life, and for the next 64 years, they would raise five boys, and countless grandchildren. She retired and put down new roots in Deltona, Florida.
A life well lived. Mom is survived by her three sons Alfredo, Raul, and Richard.
