I remember Ted from Christmas get together with Aunt Rose and Uncle Theo. Even though he was older than me, he was always kind to me and are me feel welcome. Years later when he married Jane and started his family, I visited his home to meet Tony and I remember little Michelle. Once again, Ted and Jane made me feel welcome. That was Ted! He reached out from that big kind heart and brought people in to him. He made a huge mark on my life, and I have missed seeing him. He left behind a legacy of kindness and good works. And he left behind a living wife and adoring family of children, grandchildren and great grandchiodren
