Theresa had a beautiful life and her passing was more of a celebration of this life; as she often said in her last weeks, she was so blessed to have such a wonderful loving family as they gathered nightly at her bedside.  She loved the overwhelming camaraderie and support for her husband and children.  She was known for her sense of humor, her beautiful smile and her extreme generosity to family and friends.  She was the best mother, wife, grandmother and aunt
