To all my siblings. When mom was little and even grown up, she told me often, that her mom used to say to her, "Be nice, Theresa," Our mom wanted one thing in life: for her kids to get along and be nice. In her honor, I know we will!Our mom loved each of us as we were and are. She spoke her mind, yelled, swore, beat us up when we needed our butts kicked, but she was fiercer than any lioness in our defense when any of us were down. She never left any of us. She worked hard to provide for us, even as adults. She never complained. We all learned to be creative, curious, resourceful,have a sense of humor and to live life our way. I have learned so much from my mom, especially these last 10 years and even more from the last two years. Have fun, mom. We love you.
