John Theodore Reilly

I just learned of Teds passing. He was a great man. Ted gave me my first opportunity in sales at BART. It became my calling and Ive enjoyed a wonderful career in sales/business for the past 30 years, thanks to Ted. He provided leadership and guidance and was never too busy when I needed something or had questions. The opportunity that Ted gave me all those years ago changed my life and I am forever grateful. Rest In Peace Ted.

I first met Ted in 1964 at O.R.Cote Co. where I went to buy the tank for my first all new truck. I told Ted about the truck I was about to buy. He saved me from making a big mistake, the dealer was selling me a truck to small for the tank I wanted. From then on I bought all my oil equipment from Ted. About 20 years later we also became golf buddies at Springfield CC and later Bears Paw CC in Florida. In fifty years I never heard Ted say a cross word or lose his temper.We had many good times...

Dear Barbara, I am so sorry to have missed seeing the notice in the paper about your Dad. Ted was a wonderful gentleman with a kind word he always had when passing. I'm so glad to have know him.
Please know my thoughts are with you and your family at this time.

Barbara, sorry to hear of the loss of your dad.

Ted was such a wonderful man--a gentleman and a good friend. We shared many wonderful rounds of golf at Springfield Country and we are sure he is now having a great match in heaven with Fran and Ernie. With our condolences and deepest sympathy

Charlotte, Barbara and Marty,
To a much loved Uncle and his family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Love from the Reilly's, Jackie, Pam, Jenn, Jack Jr and Maggie.
