She also loved her extended family of loving aunts and uncles as well as many cousins who were often more like siblings.
Theresa, known for her bubbly and outgoing personality as well as her fierce independent streak, loved to laugh with friends and family around her, they couldn't help but catch the laughing bug from her. Even through her trying times, Theresa always found a way back to her giggles and silliness. After graduating Lamphere High School in 1982, she spent 16 years in California, a place she loved and was always eager to share her memories of with anyone willing to listen. Theresa moved home in 2001, just in time to be able to spend a couple years with her beloved dad, David, before his passing in 2003. She was always grateful for that time with him.
