Ted was a funny and loving guy. His thoughts were faster than his ability to get them out when he talked but I always seemed to know what he was saying. He will be greatly missed at meetings and his coffee cup will be retired to the top row! RIP my friend.

He was a great man, always had some great and interesting stories to share. I'm glad he had the chance to speak to his great grand daughter, my daughter Deanna the last few months before passing. Although she never physically met this wonderful person, she had the chance to speak to him and hear his voice, and hear him say he loves her. He was a really good grand pop and I will always remember the time spent together. Those crazy days in Texas where he drove through not so nice neighborhoods and cut people off, waving to them afterwards, or just the time spent when he visited in Philly and watching tv with him on the couch, or ordering cheese steaks from Steves prince of steaks every time you came to visit us. Pop pop you will be missed and you'll always be in my heart. I love you.
