In her spare time, she liked to do scrapbooking, painting, collecting coca cola and Mickey Mouse items and loved to spoil her husband and two sons. She was an excellent cook and made many great meals for her family to enjoy. Teresa was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and aunt, and was a caring neighbor and friend.
