Much like Danine Harnes, I have lots of memories of growing up as a guest in Theresa's home. When I started first grade, I also began to ride the school bus for the first time. As scary of an endeavor as that was, it was comforting to know that Theresa was opening her home for a neighboring latch-key kid to have a place to stay safe. Mind you, a kid she had just met. I know there were times as kids, when we were too immature to recognize what a good mother Theresa was, but in retrospect, it is easy to see the results have paid off with her hard working children. She instilled discipline, and it is something they will carry with them throughout their lives. As we grew up, it was great to see Theresa begin to soften her edges, and enjoy her kids as the individuals they were becoming. I know she was a proud Mother, and an even prouder Grandmother to Stephanie's boys. So for me, I'd just like to say Thank You to Theresa for being a substitute parent, when my own were unable to be present in the moment. Great mothers do that without blinking an eye. I wish her family peace during this time, and send my love and sympathy. - Krys

I was making a special effort to contact the family of Theresa to send my condolences, and to bring you some comfort from the scriptures which I found to be consoling with a wonderful hope for the future. Notice what it says in John 5:28, 29, "Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out..." Also Revelation 21:4 says, "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." So this is very encouraging what God promises for the future, and in God's appointed time we will see the reality. Again, my condolences for your loss. Please visit the jw.org website for answers to many Bible questions.

I knew Theresa since I was a teenager. There will never be another like her. There's no way I'd ever remember all the meals I ate on Elmwood and Valley Ave, but I can remember how good they were and how many times, after sleeping over in Steph's attic hideaway, we'd raid the kitchen for leftovers and laughs. Theresa was tough - there's no two ways about that - but I always enjoyed seeing her over these last years and laughing about growing up under her rule. I remember going to her house the night of our 20 year class reunion and taking pictures in the living room. She opened her home to us then, again, just like old times. I will always remember her laughing that night, as we cracked up about all the hard times she gave Stephanie (and me) in our teens. She's a part of my youth and she will be missed. Rick and I send our deepest sympathy to Steph and Chris and all Theresa's family. We're sorry we can't be there in person.
