Mr B was my 8th grade art teacher at Morehead Jr High. He gave me the gift of discovering myself, brought out the God given artist in me and above all gave me my self confidence. I was an awkward teenager who didn't fit in at school, but he made me feel accepted and loved for who I am. He truly showed God's love to all of his students. I will forever cherish all the times he would listen to me and help guide me. He asked me to help him paint the jump ring in the Morehead gym between my 8th and 9th grade years. It meant the world to me! He was not only an amazing teacher, but an amazing human. I am blessed to have known him. Thank you for all you did for me Mr B.

Ted was a member of our church here in El Paso. Sad to hear of his passing. Happy to know we will see him again on the other side.

I had Mr. B for art in 6th & 7th grade at Lamar. It was the best hour of an otherwise dreadful day. I broke my arm in the 6th grade right before school let out. My dads wife would not allow me to have markers to let friends write their names. One day Mr. B, who could no longer take seeing my pristine canvas of a cast, sat me down to draw a snake monster wrapped around my arm and biting my casted hand. It was an amazing creation and a great memory. He taught us to create with all kinds of things and encouraged and nurtured our imaginations. He left a permanent mark.

Mr. Braithwaite was the art teacher when I began teaching at Morehead. He was a generous and kind person to a new teacher!

Mr. Braithwaite,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the U.S. Army in South Korea during the Cold War. Millions of Americans slept safe at night because you and your fellow Servicemen stood ready to defend our Country. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Rest in Peace my friend and mentor.
I miss the days of you visiting Glassworks, picking the perfect glass for each of your wonderful creations
The days you brought Marilyn with you filled the shop with such brightness as the love you two shared shone through.
Your love of art lives on through your students, some of which now teach the same techniques learned in your class.

Dear Marilyn and Cat. I never knew Ted but heard about him from relatives that knew him. They all spoke about him being such an outstanding human being and a fabulously talented artist. My prayers and thoughts are with you both in this time of grief. I know as I have been through a loss so many times. The sense of loss never goes away but the beautiful memories are with us every day. Cherish those. With love Donna S.❣
