Biography

Teresa was born in Lorain, Ohio where her other other siblings, including Judy, were born. She considered her childhood home the one at 331 Krotzer Avenue in Luckey, Ohio.^[1] Her first pet was a dog named Sandy.

Judy also taught her the colors, numbers 1-10, beginning reading, prayers, and numerous other things. Judy read her bedtime stories and listened while she said her prayers.

Her school was a brick building

Luckey Schoolhouse

which had rooms for grades 1-12. The building was scheduled to be torn down in 2019. She went to school with the same 30 children till the 8th grade.

She then moved to an attic efficiency apartment in Cleveland, Ohio to be closer to her sister, Judy. There she worked for an engineering firm.

Teresa left Cleveland to marry her first husband, Wm. Paul Smith, on 19 Aug 1968. They began life together in Landover, Maryland.

Her first son, Paul, was born while she lived in Landover. She was the epitome of a new mother and everything about her son was "perfect." He never cried and used to let her sleep till noon--a great luxury.

Her second son, Ray, was born a little over a year later. He had been infected at birth with a severe intestinal virus while in the hospital. Even though he suffered from this virus for over a year, the following three years he was constantly sick due to his immune system being compromised. Fortunately, Teresa had a wonderful pediatrician, Dr. Wolf.

In 1973 Teresa and her husband, Paul Smith, divorced. After the divorce Teresa continued to live in Landover, Maryland and worked at various jobs.

She met her second husband, Gene Hames, and they were married on 17 Apr 1977^[3] in a house they were renovating in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. Unfortunately, this marriage was a "rebound" marriage and ended five years later in 1982 while they were living in Naples, Collier County, Florida.

Teresa then moved back to the Washington, DC area. Her happiest time there was spent at George Washington University.

After her children graduated from Kennedy High School ^[4] she lived a few more years in Silver Spring, Maryland and enjoyed very much spending time with her friends Charles and Lyliane Kramer, among many others. She still remains in close contact with almost all of these friends.

She had an opportunity to move to New York City and work as Assistant Editor for the publication Glasnost News & Review^[5]. This is where she met the love of her life and third husband, Misha Kazachkov. They have been married over 30 years,^[6] are retired, and now living in Massachusetts.
