Terry was a wonderful friend and she will be missed. I pray she is at peace.
I’m so sorry to hear of Terri’s passing. Stan and family are in my thoughts and prayers.
I’m so sorry! She will be missed! Thoughts and prayers to Stan and family!
To one of my dear cousins, Theresa, although we never kept in touch, the love our families shared will flow forever through the generations to come. I have very fond memories of many visits to the New Rochelle, N.Y. clan that I hope to share with your family. God bless you all!
