Dear family and friends of the most lovely Theresa Giddings,
I treasure my 14 years of dance lessons with Theresa and Joan. I recount stories of dances learned and costume / set challenges (always Hawaiian or drill it seems) and all the crazy places we went and performed. The trip to NYC when I was 12 is practically as clear as if it were yesterday.
I can still feel how her fabulous smile and kindness made me feel - even her gentle irritation with me getting my right mixed up with my left foot :^)
Joan was also so dear and they were an excellent team. their love for each other shone bright. Their duet in the dance show was always a highlight for me.
All they taught me has been so valuable in my 29 year career on stage as an opera singer in the chorus of the Canadian Opera Chorus.
How I wish I’d had the chance to sing with her!
I Know you will all miss her dearly, but this message is to let you know that her dear heart and bright smile will shine in the hearts of all of us forever
Love Jennifer Robinson

Dear Larry, Gwen, and Wanda,
My sincere condolences to all of you and your families. I have so many fond memories of Theresa! I danced for 10 years, and I loved going to dance class! I was fortunate to then become friends with Theresa while a member of the Sea Belles. I enjoyed working with her as choreographer. I will miss our weekly phone calls, and I will miss her laughter and kind heart. RIP My friend!

My daughter Robin Kirkpatrick took dancing from Theresa for many years, she always enjoyed going to dancing, it was very beneficial for her confidence. Theresa and Joan were a great team and am sure they catching up and probably doing a few dances lessons.
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal; love leaves a memory no one can steal. Keep your sweet memories close. Rhoda Kirkpatrick

I am so sorry to hear of Theresa's passing. She was not only my favourite dance teacher, she was my friend. I am comforted by the thought that Joan and Theresa are reunited. Blessings on the family.

Condolences to all of Theresa's loved ones. I met Theresa many many years ago through dance; and she always had the sweetest smile; even if she was stressed over arranging Al Gilbert coming, she'd shrug, and say "oh well" ...smile and got on with it and we'd laugh over that. She and her sister Joan were wonderful women; she will be missed, but now time for her to rest. Forever in our hearts.

I want to express my sincere condolences to Theresa's family, friends, and all who will miss her. I didn't meet Theresa until Oct.6th, when my brother (Lee Campbell) entered Bobby's House. In the nine weeks he was there, I had daily visits with Theresa, as I always popped in for a chat. She was a delight to visit; truly one of the most positive people I have met. She accepted her time at Hospice with grace and dignity. She always smiled and made me feel better . Her door was always open ( as was her window). We found we had many connections through common friends, and shared many stories in those nine weeks before my brother's passing. Her room was always decorated with things that brought her joy. I will treasure the blessings of having been able to get to know this dear lady.. She lived a full life and will be missed by many.
