    Ralph, Kevin, Brian and grandkids; so very sorry for your loss. Teresa was a lovely lady, wonderful mother and I am sure a great grandmother. I always enjoyed her laugh - it was the best. She will not be forgotten. Love to you all.

    The loss of a loved one is so difficult to bear but please know that you can draw close to God in prayer. May he comfort and keep you during this time of bereavement as you await the day when he will awaken those asleep who live in his memory, Acts 24:15, Isaiah 26:19. My condolences for your loss
