The family will continue being in our thoughts and prayers. Asking GOD for strength, peace,comfort and endurance in the MIGHTY STRONG NAME OF JESUS!

Teresa was such a ray of sunshine, and so full of life. She always made it a point to try to brighten our day at work. She was so full of positivity and it rubbed off on everyone else. Teresa talked about her children often, and was so proud of each of them. Teresa was a beautiful soul, and I am beyond honored that I had the opportunity to know her. I will continue to pray for the family as they lay such a wonderful person to rest.
