Our family offers our deepest condolences to your family. Theresa is my Dad's(Charlie Ziarnek)first cousin, and her and Wally used to come down to Scheller and visit all of her "country cousins". I have many memories of going to Rend Lake Beach and swimming with Lisa and Laura and all the Ziarnek cousins. All of them played a big part of my childhood growing up. Theresa was a very dear lady and I'm sure all of her family will dearly miss her. All of you are in our thoughts and prayers.
