Not sure what to say?

Theodore Osmundson - "Ted" - is remembered as a great landscape architect and pioneer in many professional fields, for instance Roof Gardens. I treasure the professional and personal memories that I have been lucky to share with him and his endearing wife Lorraine.

Doug, your father had a wonderful life, I thoroughly enjoyed reading about all of his accomplishments. Celebrating his life and remembering the good times will help you and your family through the sorrow. Wishing you and your family the best at this difficult time.

What a legacy! May these fond memories help your family through this tough time.
Your friend, Travis Francis

All the members of The Art League of the East Bay are very
saddened to learn of Ted's death. He was a much valued
guest speaker when he enlightened us with his lecture and slide presentation of Japanese Gardens among his other valuable lectures. We send you and your family our sincere sympathy. We will miss him,too!

Ted was a friend who was always pleasant and cheerful and who enjoyed in many of the activities as our own family like travel, photography, books and good humor.

He will be missed and remembered as a good person who richly deserved all the recognition he received for his many contributions to the profession of landscape architecture. Our condolences to Lorraine and family. We appreciate the care and support you have given Ted for so many years.

The international profession of landscape architecture mourns one of its great pratitioners, and an individual,that served the landscape community unsefishly in several capacities.
We owe him a great deal. Our condolences to his wife Lorraine and the family.
