Therese lived an extraordinary life. It was not a life of conforming, but a life that she chose to live on her own terms. She taught everyone that she touched that anything was possible. "Just dream what you want and it will come true." How true this message represented in the lives' she touched. Yesterday she touched my heart and told me to be strong. It was time for a new journey.
Therese left this world to continue to sing a song of her own in a world that loves you just as you are. She fought a courageous battle with Parkinson's. The Disease took so much from her, but she never lost her grace, kindness and sense of humor. We will all miss this great lady. Such an amazing women. The heavens are rejoicing upon her return.
