I met Theresa on my very first day at IWA. I was “new” coming in sophomore year and didn’t know too many people. Seeing me sitting by myself at a lunch table Theresa came over and sat down across from me and started talking to me and put me at ease. It was for this small kindness that I will always remember Theresa when we were just a couple of young girls. From the lovely tribute Theresa’s daughter so eloquently wrote, I know she was so very loved, honored and blessed. I pray for the comfort of her husband, children and grandchildren. I pray for Theresa’s beautiful soul. I hope her grandchildren see her soul shining brightly in the night sky watching over them. God speed, Theresa.
I will never forget the excitement and joy I always felt when we came to visit my Aunt Betty Ann and Uncle Frank in Houston. My beautiful cousins, Cecilia and Theresa, always treated us with love and kindness as did all the Bozalina family. Being a young girl, I always looked up to them. May Theresa’s loving spirit be a comfort to her family. Her memory will be cherished.
She was a lovely and kind woman
