I am so sorry to hear of Tee's passing. She was an incredible force and mentor while working with her at Southland. My heart is heavy and my condolences to her family. To me her potato soup was the best and her heart was gold.

Mrs. Tee was such a sweetheart. She used to visit us at work next door and bring the best tuna sandwiches you ever tasted ! She was such fun to visit with even in her home. I know she missed Mr. Dick so very much and talked about being with him again someday and I am sure they are holding hands right now. My sincere sympathy to all her remaining family. The Lord be with you and help you cope with this great loss of your loved one.

Pat and family, I am so very sorry to hear of Tee's passing. I worked with her at Southland and learned so much from her. Tee was a strong woman and had a heart of gold. She will be missed. RIP sweet lady. My prayers are with the family.

Sister Fratesi, Sister Pat and family. I did not know Tee but I can see you were so fortunate to have had a wonderful person in your lives for a very long time. Even though we never want to let them go at least you can find comfort in knowing she is with The Lord. Remember to keep your eyes and heart upon The Lord for He Is Our Comforter.
Love you all,
Linda G. Williams

Mrs. Tee was quite the woman. Strong as an ox and could cook! She always made sure we had our supply of her famous tuna fish (which she even made for my daughters wedding!) and my daughters favorite, her spaghetti. Even though she would never share her recipes, we thoroughly enjoyed our visits. She will be missed.
