Hello John and Carol,

I want to tell you how much I grieve for your daughter and how I will miss knowing that she is in the world, both to appreciate your grief and to express mine, since I wasn't able to be at the memorial service.

I loved Theresa's bright and sensitive energy and I thought she was one of the most savvy, able young women around. I felt close to her because she and my partner, Anne Richmond, were similar and worked in adjoining jobs and I loved to see them together. I met Theresa because I was Leigh's landperson when they were first involved and I spent some time with them. And most important for me, Tree and Kitt decided to go away at the same time that Anne and I did, and in our few contacts, I felt a parallel with them in their adventures.

So I am glad to have had Theresa in my life, and so sorry that she will not be any more. It's good to remember how happy she was in her adventure with Kitt and how fully she lived. From my own adventure in Italy, I send all my best to you and to her other family and friends in this time of sorrow.

Sheila Moult
