Not sure what to say?

Jo and Family,
Sorry for your loss of a father, friend, and generous person. Ted and I spent many hours on deployment from HSL-32 in Norfolk. He was a fun, eager to learn officer who I enjoyed being around. He was instrumental in having my brother sent to HSL-37 in Hawaii for Jim's first squadron and my last H-2 sqadron.
I am grateful to him for his wonderful smile and wisdom when things were going awry. I looked for him in Pensacola at the H-2 convention and learned of his passing. My...

Words cannot even begin to express our sorrow for Ted's loss.
We are thinking about you Jo, and we want to let you know that our thoughts are with you.
Your extended Sicilian family.

5 USNA Class of 1972 Pilots at HSL-32

Greetings Jo & family,
I just saw Ted's name listed in the "Last Call" section of SHIPMATE, the Naval Academy alumni magazine. Wow, what a loss...I have such fond memories of our days back in the mid-1970's at Naval Air Station Norfolk as Naval Aviators attached to helicopter squadron HSL-32. We were young, invincible and out to conquer the world! I came across an old foto from 1974 or 1975 of 5 of us from USNA class of 1972 in front of our hangar (L-R:Frank Lowry, Ted, Ralph Michalske,...

after many years of looking for Ted, today, 9/5/16, I found this notice of his passing ...... I knew Ted from living in the Navy dorm with him in Sproul Hall at Penn State .... great smile and a really nice man ..... I'm saddened today

Dear Jo,
I was saddened to learn of Ted's passing. He was always a a dear friend with whom I had the pleasure of sharing home room with during our time at RLASHS. Although I lost touch with you guys over the years, I did hear of his service to our country and felt safer for knowing he was a member of our military. I am proud to have called Ted a friend. Too soon he is gone but not soon forgotten. My deepest condolences,
Kathy Klinedinst Albin

Dear Jo, Ralph, and Kreeger Family members,
As I learned of Ted's passing, a host of memories flooded my consciousness. Reflecting upon many encounters with Ted throughout our high school years and our year together at Penn State, I was so grateful for Ted's wonderfully positive attitude and demeanor. Ted was kind, loyal and pleasant. He was one of the most "together" individuals I have ever known, and I'm sure that made him a truly great sibling, spouse and naval officer. We shall all...

Dear Jo, Ralph and Family,
We have lost a great man too soon. My sincere sympathy to all of you. Having been a classmate with Ted, I am honored to have known him. He was always quick with a smile, kindness and intelligence during those formative years at Red Lion. It is no surprise that he rose to such great achievements as a man.

Dear Jo, you and Ted will always have a place in our hearts. You have been wonderful neighbors and you both made us feel so welcome to the neighborhood. We miss Ted dearly. Working for you two has been an invaluable experience for Ben and I am so pleased he had the opportunity to know you both better and to be a help. Please know we are always here for you any time.

Dear Jo,
Bob and I were sorry to read that Ted has passed away. We have been retired 25 years and have lost contact with Red Lion Senior High.

We met a gentleman 2 weeks ago whose home base was Sicily. This prompted me to tell him about you and Ted as our former students.

You have our warmest thoughts. We're confident that love of friends and family will help comfort you.

Melanie & Bob Stover
