Dear Carmen & family my sincere condolences. Knew Ted from Uplands Golf Club. Ted was a scholar & a gentleman. It has been a long time since seeing both of you but Ted will be fondly remembered.

The passing of Ted came as quite a shock to me Carmen. The last time we spoke, Ted was doing quite well. I was always thankful for Ted and you when he would make a point of asking me if I would like Salmon from your son's fishing expeditions. we also formed a better friendship when my good friend, Sean was able to rent a parking spot from you and Ted. My Mom and Dad (Mary and Doug Longman) were great friends of both of you and I know you and Ted were good friends while living in Mariner's...

Sherbrooke Grade 6 Class Edmonton

At Ross Sheppard High School

Grade Coordinator - Ross Sheppard High School Edmonton

I had the pleasure and honour of being a student of Mr. Sawchuck in grade 6 at Sherbrooke as well. He was and continued to be my "Hero" after all these years. I had kept in touch with him over these many years. And on his birthday I would contact him. He is always in my thoughts and in my heart. To his family, you are so blessed to have a such a wonderful husband, dad and grandpa. Blessings to all.

I also was lucky enough to have him guide me through Sherbrooke School in Edmonton. I moved with family to BC and in later years I was many times able to confirm his guidance, words, and thoughts with him as I worked at BC Ferries and he rode on our ships. I continued to learn and he continued to teach. Such a grand guy!.

Ted was my High School Football Coach in Edmonton and have known him over the years. Such a fine man, important in my life.

Please accept our sincere condolences on Ted's' passing;
we have fond memories of our times together through sports
at UVic. Wishing you well, Carmen, and family, through
this difficult time. With fond regards, Duke & Joyce
