    Teresa was there to show me the ropes when I came to Hank’s- she was an inspiration to those around her and a pleasure to work with. I cried when she left Hank’s and now I cry again. I will miss you dearly my friend! God will take care of you now. Love and prayers!

    Words can’t express how sad this makes me. Teresa was always such a beautiful, talented and loving woman. I cherish the friendship that we had. Heaven definitely gained an angel although it leaves those on earth with an empty hole. God bless the family and loved ones and be with you all through this very difficult time.

    I met Teresa through mutual friends and then became a co-worker of hers at Smith Shade in San Diego in the late 80s. She was a special friend whom I respected and loved then, and still do to this day. Missing you, God Bless your family, hoping for strength.
