ROBINSON TEAH NICOLE Our beautiful Teah is now with Our Lord and her beloved grandfather, Richard Ieraci. Teah brought a radiant glow to every room she entered, always made everyone laugh and was a warm comfort to so many people. She will be so missed by her parents, Diane and Bob Dornenburg; her twin sister, Tahnee and Craig Zernich; her sister, Cami and Ray Himme; and of course her Grandma Helen Ieraci. Her greatest loves were her nephew, Cole Zernich and her niece, Sophia Himme. Also sadly missing Teah is her stepbrother, Rob; and stepsister, Erin Dornenburg. Teah's father was Charles Robinson who passed away in 1979. Hugs and kisses from Uncle Rich, Aunt Paula, Matt and Jill Ieraci, Uncle Dan, Kaishia and Aavielle Ierace and Aunt Val, Uncle Paul, Richard and Pauley Vennare. Prayers and love from special cousins, Colleen, Randy, Danny and Jessica Gardner and Mary and Alex Weibel. We sincerely want to thank everyone in the Critical Care Unit at Heritage Valley Sewickley and everyone at Heritage Valley Beaver Good Samaritan Hospice who treated us like family every day and took such good care of Teah. Teah had an incredible zest for life. She long battled a fight against addiction, a fight that she boldly fought. To her very last day she was a happy, beautiful young lady always caring about others. We are all sure that she is in Heaven helping take care of the children whose moms are not there yet. There are no words to express how heartbroken we are. Friends will be received Friday 12-8 p.m. in the THOMAS - LITTLE FUNERAL SERVICE, INC., 305 Main Street, Imperial, PA 15126 (724-695-2800).
