To the family of Teresa, what a sweet sweet spirit. Teresa would light up each time I ran into her. She just had a bubble about her. May God comfort you as you miss her. Kim Vandagriff

I'm just heartbroken for your family to hear of Teresa's passing.  She was the sweetest , dearest lady and the kindest neighbor to everyone.  The summer she lived across the street from us at Delong Lake she became the friendliest nicest neighbor I've known in 27 years.  Teresa was so lovely to my granddaughters , they felt very special with her.  Sincere condolences to the family.

I told my granddaughters about Teresa's passing and they were very sad to hear the sad news.  They loved to stop and visit her new home and loved how she made them feel wonderful and special.  I think she did that with everyone of her neighbors and everyone who knew her.  Such a remarkable, kind a special lady who will not be forgotten by anyone who knew her.  Heartfelt sympathies to you.

Ricky Schreckenghost was a PE Teacher at Holy Rosary Academy when our 3rd oldest child a daughter was in 7th grade. Years later in 2009 I joined the Summit at the Alaska Club and met Theresa and Cara and through conversation realized I knew her son. We remained friends and 2 weeks ago I saw her not realizing it was my last time. I’ll remember her sweet smile and her laughter! RIP

This hurts my heart so much.
Teresa was like a 2nd mom to me. She checked on me almost every month after my mom passed. Teresa entered my life 24 years ago when I was 16. She started as my next door neighbor and quickly became SO much more. I will feel this void terribly

Teresa was larger than life to anyone who knew her. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. I know she’s already up there running people around or taking something to someone, just seemed to always be busy. She will be missed by so many. My prayers for comfort to Russell, Ricky and Cara and to Teresa’s siblings. May she Rest In Peace.????

My comment did not end with ????, I posted a heart and prayer hands but it posted as question marks. I cannot edit it, my apologies. Teresa, you are probably cracking up right now. :-)

My heartfelt condolences to her family and loved ones.  Theresa was the most generous and kind human being I have had the privilege of knowing.  She will always be in peoples' hearts for her loving nature and will be greatly missed.  I will forever miss her and her smile.
