I can truly say that Teresa was a dear friend of mine that I will cherish with fond memories. We met at the workplace where we shared a passion for caring for pediatric patients. As our friendship grew, we shared meals and fun times among friends during things as card playing and weight loss adventures! I will miss you, my friend! Rest in peace in God's arms.

My Dear Aunt Teresa, what a blessing to my life you were. Although I am devastated to hear of your passing, I know that you and dad are rejoicing in heaven together and that makes my heart incredibly happy. You were always so important to me because you were the little piece of dad that I still had here on earth. You told me stories about him that I will keep in my heart forever. I will always cherish our deep conversations about life, your advice, our time spent together and the loving person that you always were to me and everyone around you. You will be so dearly missed.
Kirk, Shelly, Natalie, and Allison, I am keeping you all close to my heart in prayer.

I could not have asked for a better friend in this life. In sad times, happy times, through the grief of deaths and the joys of weddings and grand babies, Teresa has been my constant, supportive, loving friend. I will miss her from the bottom of my heart but I know I will spend eternity with her because she knew and loved her Savior. I love you, dearest friend. I will see you in glory.
