Dom, I am devastated by this tragedy and I am really sorry for your loss and know how important Theresa was in your life and in your families lives as well. I will miss seeing her standing in front of the house, smiling and waving whenever we passed through the neighborhood. Theresa was a fixture of the neighborhood and God needed a new gatekeeper to make sure that a better class of angel was admitted into heaven. I wish I could be there for you physically but spirtually I am. I will forever hear the echo of your skins in the dungeon that Theresa tolerated for sooo long and her singing "He Man Go" when we jamming one summer day. As I am typing this I can hear Raul in mind saying " Treesa, Ccccaa can I have a glass a wata?"...Blue Bird.

Take care, be strong and remember that you always have a friend just a phone call or an email away.
