Teresa, fondly known by her childhood nickname “T”, was caring and compassionate in all of her life roles, and routinely went above and beyond to help neighbors, friends, family, and patients, even if it meant a house call. She was a mother, wife, friend, and dedicated Physician. “T” was an accomplished baker, cook, and an avid gardener. Her love for cooking and gardening intersected in the successful growing of Italian tomatoes to make her famous Marinara sauce. She grew hybrid roses and had numerous peach trees; visitors would often leave her home with fresh cut roses and peaches for their journey home. She was also the published author of several Italian cookbooks and converted many of her Italian family recipes into Gluten Free dishes.
