(nee Cifaldi) Born to Eternal Life on Thursday, February 5, 2016. Age 77 years. Beloved mother of Mary (Kris Hennlich) and Steve (Donna Simonis). Proud grandma of Ryan, Kyle and Alissa. Also survived by other family, her two cats Molly and JD, who loved being near or on her on a daily basis and many special dear friends. Thressa worked at the IRS for several years before meeting Frank and raising a family. She went back to work at St. Paul's School, first as the librarian, then as the school secretary. She had many special bonds with the children who passed through the halls there. Her infectious smile and laugh will be greatly missed by many family and friends. Thank you to the paramedics and Milwaukee Fire Department for responding so quickly trying to give mom another chance. Also, a huge thank you to the St. Luke's 8th Floor CICU team for the care you gave our mom. While her body is no longer with us, her spirit is here laughing and guiding us along. She's in no pain and with our Dad, who she has missed deeply for the past 8 years. We love you mom. Visitation Tuesday, February 9, 2016 from 9-11 AM at St. Paul Catholic Church, 1720 E.
