Clarence, Brenda, and Brian,
It was such a shock to hear the terrible news of Theresa's passing. I know that there is nothing anyone can say that will take the pain away or make this time any easier for any of you but I am sure that you can take comfort in knowing just how loved she was and what a truly special person she was.
Our family connections go way back to when my Mom, Rose Hurley, taught Theresa when she was going through school. The family ties continued when Theresa's sister, Eleanor, lived with our family for many years during her nursing years and the bonds were even more secured when I took my first teaching position in Goose Bay at St. Mike's school on the base. When my Mom and Dad realized that Theresa was a teacher at St. Mike's they were relieved to know that I would have someone I could turn to, if need be. When I think back on all the laughs that Theresa and I shared while at St. Mike's it warms my heart. She always loved a good laugh!
Although I left Goose Bay many years ago, I never lost touch with Theresa and it was always so wonderful to hear all the latest news updates on the family.
Clarence, our thoughts and prayers are with you and the entire Bruce and Nolan families.
Mary-Lu and Jim Stenhouse
Theresa will be dearly missed.
