Teri's Words

The fabric of my life is a coat of many colors. It's impossible to thank all the people who have been there to catch me or give me a boost up. How do I thank all those people who held me together and believed in me when I didn't believe in myself? To my mother, my brother Dennis and my sister-in-law Mary, and even my brother Barry, thank you for your love and support. Thanks also to my other families, the Arace's, especially Linda, and the Cantatores.

Through the years there have been many others who have taught and inspired me. I'd like to thank Mrs. Van Warran, Dr. Michale Silverman, Mr. R., Mr. Fitz, Stuart Wood III, TC Lesczynski, David Welch, Henry Boote, John Bogue, Pat Cole, Shirley Temple Black, Bia Roth, Charles Wallrich, Richard Danley, Linda Amiel Burns.

Lastly, I'd like to thank the person who knows me so well, the one whom I love, admire and cherish, Sophie.
