“Wow! Its hard to believe that Ted has passed from this world so quickly. He has been a part of our family roughly 13 years, joining us in times of joy and in times of sadness. He was a very caring & loving person. Even when things didnt turn out the way he planned, he would find humor in the situation & turn things around with laughter.I appreciate the way he was a good friend & companion to Jackie & Bryce. I am sure he is still watching over them, making sure they are taking good care of his “babies” as he would call their cats. My thoughts & prayers go out not only to my family but also to Ted’s family in Virginia. He will be greatly missed. “
“I met Ted thirteen years ago. He has been a part of our family ever since. He was a wonderful cook. I always looked forward to what he was bringing to the holiday table. He had a true talent in cooking and seemed to really enjoy it. He cared so deeply for his family and friends. I’ve never known him to judge anyone. His care and love towards others was unconditional. When he hugged you, he meant it. It was pure and straight from the heart. I’ll truly miss his hugs. He loved his family. He spoke often of them. He deeply missed his step mom Linda who passed far too soon back in 2004. I’d like to think they’re now together in heaven. I send my most sincere condolences to his family. My family is also hurting as well and we are here for you. Ted will be missed but he’s forever in our hearts. “
