I knew Ted quite well and enjoyed talking with him about sailing. He accompanied us to our customers on occasion and was eloquent, calm and effective. He was a gentleman and we will all miss him.

Shirley and Family, I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Reading this obit gave me insight into your husband and father,s life. He was a very nice person who truly appreciated his life and enjoyed his family. I pray for God to give you comfort during this difficult time. His presence in your lives will be richer because of him. An old childhood friend, Patti Ratcliffe Stone

Ted was a wonderful relative, my cousin, and as it said in the obituary, very interested in Sweden and his origins. I had counted on seeing him again.Sadly that will not be.
