Theodore Sanders Stern

Dear Tippy
We were deeply saddened to hear of your loss. I always respected your dad and had the opportunity to visit with him before Christmas. He was such a great conversationalist!
May God grant you peace and consolation

The Center for Heirs' Property Preservation regrets deeply the loss of such a great and good man and will be presenting it's 2013 "Commitment to Justice" Award to Dr. Stern's family in his honor at a reception in Charleston on March 7th.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Some of the best and most meaningful years of my life were spent during my education at the College of Charleston! President Stern was fondly known as "Daddy Stern" to a select group of us! He had an incredible open heart and readily available ear for his students. He helped to define my native city of Charleston...His legacy being larger than life itself, I am so proud to have him as a beloved "patch" on the quilt of my life.

Tippy, I have so many found memories from Jr. High spending time with you and your family. I am so very sorry for your loss. Your Dad was a very special man. May you find comfort in all of the sweet memories that were made.

This amazing man also had responsibility for planning, as a seabee, the enormous logistics of an invasion of Japan in 1945. I believe his autobiography
