TEDDY,THE NAVY GANG JUST FOUND OUT.WE ARE ALL TORN UP.RIP

You crossed my mind today buddy! Even though it's been nearly 4 months, everyone still misses you!

My heart goes out to all the family and especially to my friend, Linda. I think of you often and remember when our little Ted was just a baby and such a joy to all. My prayers are with you, Linda, and all of Ted's family and friends.

your service turned out beautiful, we cried, we laughed, we celebrated your greatness. i felt u there the whole time and i hope u were happy with it. u are and always will be my love. so many people love you and will miss u dearly. i know i could never be complete without u by my side but i have you in my heart and u have my soul. until we meet again my love, until we meet again!

Ted, you were a great guy and a big help with the family.
R.I.P. man

Ted, you were always so nice to me. I still remember you and all your service buddies playing catch with me when you guys were on leave. You were a great step brother. I'm so sorry that we did not spend more time together. I hope that you and Granny are together. May you rest in peace. Love you always.

This is from Ted's Mother Linda.
My only child, my heart and soul, my friend, my everything. I remember the day you were put in my arms. Oh how beautiful you were and always will be, I can't imagine my life without you and your easy ways. You were the best dad to Joshua and Seth. You touched so many lives. You will be in my heart forever. Until we are together again. Mom

My best friend, my brother you will always be. No matter how many miles or how much time passed, when we talked, we hadn't missed a beat. Trying to make sense of any of this is futile. I'm giving it my best to do what we always have done. No matter how far, how deep, how close, how high-we loved each other the same. Unconditionally!!! Unconditional love I have never known from anyone else because you always knew the truth, but you didn't care, you loved me anyway. Such a liberating feeling to...

I did not get to spend nearly enough time with you. You will always be in my heart. I will take care of your Mom. Love you so very much
