Not sure what to say?

My thoughts and prayers are with and for all of you. I have fond memories of Ted, especially when we were at Calvin together (in the early 50's) and he led student devotions in the chapel. They were some of the best chapel services I attended.

Our sympathy to Tena, Rick, Viv and the children. Prayers for God's comfort and His joy in the hope we have in Christ, our Savior.

Betty and my thoughts and prayers are with Aunt Tena and my cousins and their families. Uncle Ted was such a wise and gentle man, I have found memories of our many visits together in Michigan and Ontario. As my uncle he showed me how to be humble and love our Lord. He instilled in me his love of animals, his horses.

A wise and and loving man, Dr Minnema showed us a gentler, kinder Dutch Reformed Church than we were used to seeing in the 1960s in East Paris.

Grandpa Ted, as many of us new him, was a wonderful man and I was blessed to have known him. My condolences to Tina, Tom, Ted, Hank and Rick, their wives and children. Love and hugs to you all.

Our deepest sympathy and prayers for all of you! Ted was such a wonderful professor,colleague, friend and mentor to me. He will be deeply missed by you and to many of us!
