Ted was my childhood "best" friend and I will never forget him. We spent the first thirteen years of our lives together making some wonderful memories in Webster, NY. My condolences to his family.

To Ted's family, I had the pleasure of working with Ted at VCS. He always had a smile on his face while he was delivering goods to us in Weston. My thoughts are with you all during this time.

He was an avid sailor who I wish I could have had the opportunity to sail with. He was my Uncle that motivated me to start sailing. I will always remember the days of growing up and seeing him in Nevada as well as New York. I really wish he could be with me and my Dad when we go to the Bahamas this next year

Carol, Please accept our deepest sympathy in the passing of your beloved husband, Ted. God bless and keep you in these days to come as He has faithfully done in days past. Isaiah 41:13: "I am the Lord your God, who holds your right hand, and I tell you, "Don't be afraid. I will help you." Let Jesus chase away the butterflies of apprehension during these next few days and weeks as you lean on Him. You are in our prayers.

My deepest condolences are with Holtz family. I have had the pleasure of working on a house renovation, and have to say, out of all family’s I have worked with, this was the sweetest family I have ever met. In thinking back on the project, there is no one as kind as Ted and his wife. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers.

I was saddened to hear of Ted's passing yesterday. I am comforted knowing he passed peacefully. Ted always taught me not to worry about the small things in life but to live each day to its fullest. I will miss his wit, humor and sincerity. One discussion we had years ago centered on what success is...He told me "it is doing the things you really love to do with the ones you really love". Our paths did not cross that often but I will always remember you Teddy!
God Bless You and your Family
