To the family, please accept our condolences at this time. I enjoyed working with Ted during the late 80's at 1390. LeRoy Robinson, Philadelphia Eagles.

I'm very saddened by the loss of Ted. I met him through my best college friend, Tom Humphries, whom I also hope is in radio Heaven! As a lover of radio myself, I'm just sorry that Ted and I didn't get a chance to work together for very long! He was a very talented and funny professional! I can still hear his voice also doing the weather forecast on "The City". Rest In Peace, Ted! I'm thankful that I got to see you one last time a couple of weeks ago! I hope that you and Tom are having a blast in radio Heaven! Miss y'all dearly!
