Ted was one of the kindest people I have ever met. We bowled together for many years. On his 99th birthday he bowled a 199! He was an outstanding role model for how to live life to the fullest. I will miss him.

Will miss u uncle ted thank u for all the knowledge u imparted to all of us

Ted was an amazing person. I was privileged to know him from my years as a Supervisor at the Senior Center and Sunday mornings in his pew at church. It was truly an honor to plan a 100th birthday party for him at our church. The entire membership was involved as it was to honor Ted. For his 101th birthday this year he was escorted to the altar for a birthday blessing and at the conclusion jumped off the step showing his excitement. He always remembered the love of his life, Shirley....

Ted was such a kind, selfless person:) A life well lived !

We loved talking to Ted and hearing his stories about Goose Pond. Having Ted and some family members share a meal with us at Goose Pond was an unforgettable experience. We are thankful to have known him. Dave and Caroline Stilwell
