Theresa will be remembered mostly for her loving spirit. She was kind. She never spoke an unkind word, she always had a smile even in the most difficult of times. She was filled with hope and was an inspiration to many. Her parting words were always “Love you Bunches” Well Theresa, we love you bunches too and will miss you always.
