My condolences to Ted's family. I was not able to attend the funeral or gathering however I have a group picture of Ted when he studied at Mont La Salle to be a Christian Brother in 1950, though it was for a short time. I would be happy to get that picture to you; just call me at 916 929-1973; or email [email protected]

Brian and all, so sorry for your loss, but I know your Mom and Dad are reunited in their love. Thinking of you.

To all the Porters, we send our love and condolences. Your parents were a huge part of our family's lives for many years and we are all grateful for their friendship. We pray that the Lord will cover you all now in His love and grace.

My mom, Norberta Bamford (Walery) would like to send her condolences, she is so sorry for your loss. Ted was a close and dear friend to her brother Norris. May our heavenly Father and our Lord Jesus be especially close to all, giving comfort and the peace that surpasses all understanding during this time of loss.
