Terry was a good friend who I worked with at the Norfolk Post Office many years ago.  We had our lunch together there every day.  We spent some holidays together at her and John’s cottage on the Outer Banks.  When John retired from his job with the Coast Guard, Terry quit her job to spend time with him.  After John passed away, and my family grew with grandchildren’ and greatgrands, I didn’t see Terry as much.  I miss her. She was a dear, and generous to a fault. Now she will be near and side by side with John.  God bless you, Terry, dear friend.  Addie Ungerman.

Teresa and John were our neighbors and we miss them both.  They, and especially Teresa after John's death, were generous with their time and very thoughtful towards our family.  

Teresa set a tone of hospitality and kindness in our little cul-de-sac.  She always conveyed warmth and grace as she worked in her perpetual 'Yard of the Month' flower garden.  We remember friendly chats, exchanging acts of service like moving trash bins-securing packages-and trading seasonal and holiday gifts.  

Teresa adopted every member of our family.  It took us a year or so to figure out that Teresa was the source of the infinite supply of tennis balls that our dog brought home.  Teresa had a water bowl for her in the garage and they shared a love for one another. One Easter, Teresa gifted our children with gigantic chocolate crosses.  The smiles on our kids face was only matched by the smile on hers.  We could not have asked for a better neighbor.
  
Teresa, you are dear to us and we will miss you much.  May God bless you with rest and the joy of life with Christ everlasting.

Teresa, you were truly a remarkable person. I will always treasure the moments we shared, from our breakfast and lunch dates to the all the love you shown me and lessons you taught me. You were not only incredibly smart but so detailed in everything you did. Your stories, especially about your travels with John around the states, brought so much joy and inspiration to my life. I miss our conversations deeply. You meant so much to me and my family, and I will carry these beautiful memories with me always. Rest in peace, Teresa. You will forever be in my heart. I love you.
