God bless you and Rest In Peace sweet Lady. You will be missed Aunt Theresa. But I am happy to know you are sharing a dance with Uncle Jimmy. My son shared a story that was just perfect. He shared a memory at one of our family parties. You went up to your husband (Uncle Jimmy) and asked him if he wanted something to eat. He said no and as you were leaving he called you back and said, " The only thing I want in this Life is You"... and you smiled that beautiful smile of yours. So happy to know you are both together again. You are so loved by many. Rest in Peace and until we meet again. I love you. Your nephew Joe
