TM, I'm so sorry for your loss. Your mom was my first boss (Campbell Chevrolet) and taught me by example how to be a good employee and an even better person. I've thought of her and your family often over the years and " Mrs. Croxton" will always hold a special place in my heart! Love and prayers, Ellen (Grugan) Hendry
I met Teresa thru our Reston VA Alon meetings. She was so sweet and full of knowledge and love. I send my condolences to her entire family. She certainly lived a full and wonderful life to age 97.
Teresa was a wonderful conversationalist, and I have missed our political discussions when she moved out of Northern Virginia. I’m sure she’s at peace now and enjoying being with her husband and children for eternity now.
I wasn't fortunate enough to meet Teresa more then a couple of times, but she was such a bright friendly and warm lady that she made a wonderful impression on me. I send love to the whole family , and I hope that you will each find peace now that she has her peace .
