35: Balderdash Theresa's best game. We would write out several answer options for her. Once she heard the Balderdash word, she would make a great display out of studying her answer options. To submit her answer, she would slyly slide her answer across the table, giving it a flap along the way. Theresa won a lot of Balderdash games. Lori | 1986 Christmas Age 24 years

36: I don't recall what we were eating but Tess said it was GO-LICIOUS. Not delicious. Golicious. We were all laughing and tried to get her to say Delicious. We would go: DEE -then -LICIOUS. Tess would say DEE and LICIOUS but every time we tried to get her to say the two words together, it started with a G. Ever since then when something is really good, it's GOLICIOUS! Lori | Christmas 1988

37: Christmas 1988 Age 26 years

38: 1988 Age 26 years. | Theresa loved to dress up and have her hair done. For our family photos in 1988, we made her a new pink cotton sateen dress(her best colour)and proceeded to curl her hair. Theresa's hair was so straight, it was hard to curl and we had to hold the curling iron on it for a long time, which actually caused us to burn her head a few times. This did not upset Theresa at all, instead, she said, "It's okay, Dabby, I know it hurts to be beautiful!" Deborah

40: Summer 1990 Age 28 years

41: I made Theresa's blue denim dress- she loved to "Dress Western." I remember when ever I was sewing she would sit RIGHT beside me and watch everything I did. Every time I picked up my snippers to cut a thread, she would say, "Snip Snip Dabby! " (her name for me) I never missed cutting a thread! Deborah | Summer 1990

42: Summer 1990 Theresa loved her family, her friends and her job. (and also bossing people around!) Nancy

43: Summer 1995Age 33 years

44: 1990 Age 28 years Tess loved people- men especially. One evening John Kinnear came over to visit Dad. After he left Tess leaned against the door and with the drama that would put any Drama Queen to shame, she said, "He's soooo cute." Lori

45: I recall being warned that I had better not step on her toes while dancing with her at Kevin and Shelley's wedding! Theresa loved to dance and have fun, always wanting to be the life of the party. Mike | 1990 Kevin and Shelley's wedding

46: Christmas 1991 in Alberta These photos were taken by me with Theresa's Polaroid camera. She stayed with us for 3 or 4 days between Christmas and New Year 1991. Nancy

53: Christmas 1995 One memory I have of Theresa is in the Fall of 1980 I had dinner at your home in Kingston and everyone was there including Theresa. The next week, I am getting onto a city bus when I hear a voice from the back of the bus calling out, "Hello Shelley!" I look and there is Theresa with a big smile and big wave telling everyone she knows me. Shelley

59: Theresa always considered Mike to be her boyfriend. She met Mike in 1983 through Neil Fraser in Kingston- even before I met him. Mike, his Dad and his brother went to see Neil Fraser and met Theresa, who lived with the Frasers then. When Mike came to visit me at my parents' house in 1984, Theresa thought he was coming to visit her for Christmas ! Deborah

61: When Theresa came to our program, they some spent time painting on canvas. This was not a really structured activity, and the individuals did what ever they wanted. After they were completed, they held an Art Show and Theresa demanded I buy her painting- I did. It belongs to you and your family and I would like to send it to you. Unfortunately, she never signed it, but her name is on the back. Darlene McKenny, Pathways to Independence.
