Let the Blogs Begin.... Theresa Lyons 1962-2006

Mark the Date - September 13, 2006 - The launch date for the first and only Blog dedicated to the Ex-Q&R Alumni!! Welcome!

For those of you who I saw last night at Theresa's Wake, it was wonderful seeing you all again - in spite of the horrible circumstances that brought us all back together! I could not help but think that T would have loved to been there with us - laughing and reminiscing, catching up on each other's new lives, kids, girlfriends, boyfriends, break-ups, new cars, job, careers, goldfish - and there is no doubt she would have been laughing it up and - often throwing the "crow" laugh in there and making everyone just feel better in her presence.

It was what "T" did best - always made people feel welcomed, valued, cared for, part of the team - no matter what the situation, you could always count on her for a good story, a good absence excuse, and always - ALWAYS - a good laugh!

Try and think of one person that did not like Theresa - it was impossible to not like her - she was fun, outgoing, kind, witty, bright, and always seemed to be in a good mood -even when we knew it wasn't really the truth. How many people can say that about anyone they know? She was a special person, a loyal and trustworthy friend, has departed this world way too soon and left behind many saddened and hurting friends and relatives. I hope we all can take some solace in the many funny and wonderful memories we all have of "T" over the years and rest assured she is in a far better place now.
