I am adding another note of sympathy to Lyle and his family over the passing of Theresa. I do remember Lyle & Terry visiting my folks, Uncle Eldon/Uncle Tappy & Aunt Issy. Lyle & Terry were just starting out and I was overly impressed with people not from the farm. I remember there were always lots of stories and laughing. I'm Eldon's oldest daughter, Debbie, and wish Lyle, all the children, grand children, etc continued blessings. What a legacy Lyle and Terry created.

Although our families haven't stayed in touch over the years, I do remember your family visiting the farm in Altamont while Grandpa Ernest was still here. It was always an exciting visit when all those kids piled out of the VW. Our sympathy to your family at the loss of Theresa. Prayers for your family as you remember her life and mourn her loss.
Your cousin, Sara (Tappendorf) Wendling.

I believe the most important thing to remember about Theresa was simply that she had a heart of gold and bigger than most could every know about. Family meant every thing to Theresa (Terry).
