Everytime I think of Teresa, I smile. We went to the same grade school and had some of the same friends. She was a sweet girl who was alot of fun! I can still see her goofing around to James Brown's song " I got ants in my pants"! We saw each other only a few times as adults, but when we did, it was as if it were yesterday. She is missed.

I will forever miss Ms.Teresa. I can't even begin to explain what an incredible woman she was and the impact she made to so many lives from our family, to our friends, to everyone at the settlement. It truly hurts and breaks my heart but I will truly miss her every day and cherish all the wonderful memories we've all shared with her and Chelo and growing up with her kids.She was my friend, and most importantly she was my family. I wouldn't have made it through life without her guidance, her support, and especially her love. She was my aunt...my mother's sister, and I will forever be greatful to Teresa for always being there for us. My mom and Teresa were inseparable, joined together at the hip, but a friendship that will last for an eternity until they meet again. The Lord had certainly blessed our family with her. God bless her beautiful soul. I already miss you terribly Teresa and I will always be here for your family because....you are my family. Love you guys. (Tear)

My family and I will forever remember Teresa and be thankful for everything she has done for us. I wish I knew her longer, because she was a very special woman who put everyone else before herself. A truly passionate woman who went above and beyond to put a smile on everyone's face. I can't believe she's gone, it's just a bad dream that I cannot wake up from. I will miss seeing her at all the family events, she always made them special with her presence and she made the best burgers and treats. May Teresa and her family be in our prayers and may her spirit shine bright through each one of them. Mothers like her are one of a kind, one in a million, and never forgotten. God bless her and help her family get through this difficult time. My family will always be here for them.
