❤️.....it's been awhile.  This was a day I didn't expect......miss you Teresa.

Make God bless you all and
My heart goes out to you. It is always a loss for humanity when we lose a person like Teresa.🙏🏽🫂

We need more people like Teresa here on earth.  I am sure she is with Wyatt in God's loving arms. I am honored to have known her.

My condolences to Teresa's family.  I'm so sorry for your loss. I had some long conversations with Theresa a couple of years ago and I know she was in a lot of pain. Especially from the loss of Wyatt.  My granddaughter Layla was a friend of Wyatt's. Teresa was a lovely, lovely woman and will definitely be missed.

Theresa, the sister I didn't know I had, until it was too late.  
23 and me led me to your daughter Tiana.  It took us a little time to figure out how we were connected.  
How I wish we could have met. You look so much like your paternal grandmother, and we do look like sisters!
I looked through your pictures and saw a vibrant, loving woman who made a difference in the world.  I don't know what your physical pain was, but I know a few of the reasons for your emotional pain.
Now, you are free from both.  
Until we met in heaven, 
love from your sister, 
Royce

It's been 4 years now since you left our world. I  know that Wyatt and you are loving and praising a life that lives in peace and harmony...I miss you very much.

It's been a few weeks now hon...What went wrong. I don't have the death certificate yet. I'm so sorry we didn't  find the help we sought...Forgive me . Miss you ❤ 

Hi, I am Teresa’s Cousin Stephanie from her mother, Nancy’s, side of the family.  Every time I see a picture of her, I am struck by how much she looked like her Mom.  Although we met when we were very small, it wasn’t until middle age that we grew close.  I saw her on a trip to see the relatives in LA in the 1970s.  She organized a trip for the kids to walk to the park for ice cream.  As the oldest sibling in her family, she led us to paradise on a cone.  I was several years older than Teresa but she was the one who collected all of the money and led us off to the park.  I was an only child and she was the eldest in hers so she took the leadership role handling multiple people with ease.  It was a good time seeing her in our early teens.  After that, changing family configurations and residences did not lead us to one another.  As many of us have experienced, long lost people found each other on the net.  We were no exception. In the mid 2000s, Teresa, ever the leader, found me via my university e-mail.  I couldn’t figure out the snarky sender name as it was so much like something one of my past research subjects would have used.  I hesitated. Click! What? It was from Teresa!  She was always gorgeous. I never did ask her why she used that account name.  I think she was probably tired of being stalked on the Internet and chose a name to run them off.    We hit it off fabulously allowing us to become very close.  We shared common ground as writers, did research, and loved our coffee.  She had done great environmental work attracting attention beyond Saugus. And we both Loved  frogs!!! When I was in LA doing research and visiting my BFF from undergrad, Teresa and I enjoyed meals, coffee chats, and beamed with pride over who each other had become. We shared nearly daily texts or calls (I don’t like phones). As she grew ill and things got so painful for her, I found her very brave.  I love u cuz! Forever!!! I will be delighted to hug you on the other side.  Enjoy Wyatt!
