Not sure what to say?

I had the pleasure of spending over two years with TJ in the Marine corps, both overseas and at Camp Pendleton. You have my condolences. Ted was one of a kind. I have my album to remember him by. I miss his early Christmas card

Ted,
All of us who are fellow friends of Bill W. agree that you lived your life as though someone else was watching. You set an example for the rest of us to emulate. You certainly didn’t mind giving of your time, resources, and wit in the time I had with you. And you welcomed me back with open arms when I came back home after fighting cancer.
