Dear Teresa, John, Katie and family,
We are so very sorry for your loss; it's never easy to say good-bye to someone you love, regardless of age. I'm sure your presence, love, and grace helped her to face her final hours without fear.
Although I never met Addie, I have admired her for years, having heard stories of her grit, kindness, and dry wit. I still smile when I think of her announcing her decision to give up using the chain saw when she turned 90!
Knowing Teresa and Katie and the remarkable women they are, I'm quite confident that she passed along her tenacity, intelligence, and generosity to you both.
We send much love, today and always.

Rita & Theresa - Your Mom was the best "one of a kind" ever! She always made me feel welcome and a part of the family. From her delicious pickles to her delicious sense of humor, life was better because of her. One of the first adults who I ever felt truly spoke not only her mind but the honest truth. I always respected and admired her deeply for it. Finally back together with your Dad, I am sure she is "brightening" the streets of heaven with "all" that is so uniquely her. She is remembered fondly and with tears, happy and sad. Thanks for sharing her with me! With all our love and heartfelt sympathies, Jill & Phyllis
