Not sure what to say?

Ted and I served together as carrier pilots in the Vietnam war while assigned to VAW-111, Det. 19 embarked in USS Hancock (CVA-19). While looking up old squadron mates I came across his obit. on google. He was an outstanding Naval Officer and carrier pilot. Jules Folgate, Captain, U. S. Navy (Ret.)

To the family....

I knew Ted for many years and dated him when he was at the Academy..his family and mine (the Giordanos) were long time friends in the Bronx...
My heartfelt sympathy to his family..

Ted was a wonderful man, a mentor and invaluable help to me in the business, and a true friend. He even put up with my miserable golf game with great humor: "Hit the ball, drag Dave!" I enjoyed and cherish every minute we spent together, and will miss him greatly. Rest in peace, amigo.

Ted was my great friend. He was my boss. My father. My son. There were many years I spent more time with Ted than my family. He was a joy to laugh with. To plan with. To think with. To play with. We were on a wavelength together that one aspires to with a friend. I miss him every minute of every day.

Ted was a special friend, golf partner and role model to me in so many ways. We shared many wonderful times over the last 40 years. I will miss him. Rest in peace Teddy.

When Ted told me of his service in Vietnam, I was fascinated and in awe. I know he flew over 100 missions & landed on an aircraft carrier many times at night. I asked if he had any service awards. He said his greatest award was being here to talk about it. Thank you for your service, Ted, and your friendship. You'll be missed but never forgotten on the links at Llanerch.

Spent many good times with Ted involving the Muni bond market. A teacher, a mentor and a friend. You will be missed.

Ted was truly a man for all seasons.He was a colleague and mentor to me for over forty years.
I will miss Teddy and cherish all the fond memories of my wonderful dear friend.
Rest in Peace my friend.

What fond memories I have of growing up with Teddy in the Bronx. Our friendship lasted throughout our lives and though we didnt converse often, I will miss him! Rest In Peace my friend!
