Our deepest sympathy to all the family on the passing of a wonderful kind, gentle, caring and hardworking lady who took a genuine interest in all the extended family, cousins and relations. She enjoyed her regular visits to the old homestead in Belville, Monivea and always asked about the neighbours. We certainly will miss her dearly. God bless her on her journey up above as she is reunited with Des and all her siblings and family. May her gentle soul rest in Heavenly peace. Ta sibh go leir in à r smaointe agus in à r paidreacha. Àr dheis Dé go raibh a hanam uasal. Slan go foill.xx

We are confident that Auntie Teresa is safely in the arms of Jesus today, hopefully chatting with Daddy! We send our warmest wishes for peace for John & Jennifer and boys, Desmond & Emma and children and all her family in Ireland. Auntie Teresa has always been so good to our family including us in celebrations and coming to visit Mom and Dad as they became less able to travel. Her hospital visits to Daddy in his last days to say the rosary and Divine Chaplet were so uplifting. She will surely be missed by all. Sending you all hugs in your time of grief. Peace.
