Uncle Teddy, there's so many memories I have from spending the night at your house and playing video games to you giving me my first motorcycle ride at 8 years old and you giving mom a heart attack. My heart hurts to know you're no longer here, but I'm happy to finally see you at peace. You will be missed more than you know, by so many people... - The Brat definitely loves you and will miss you.

Daddy, I have always been a daddy's girl. We may not have always been close but that never changed how much I love you. I want to thank you for these past months I wouldn't trade them for the world. I got to have my daddy and tell him how much he meant to me and hold you until the end. I love you and miss you more than you will ever know.

Dad, though no words will ever express how much I thank the lord for you as my father, I am so blessed to have had you through everything in my life. You were always a great example of how we should live our lives, ready to help anyone at anytime with anything. The past 6 months have been a true journey together. Watching your fight really made me see how great you are. While my life will never be the same, I will never get tired of being told "your so much like your dad" it is the greatest compliment I've ever received. The way you lived your life is one for all of us. You made your mistakes and learned from them often to make someone else better for them. I know your at peace and by now you've hugged grandpa, O.T., and all those who went on before you. I will do my best to live my life just as you did. You touched so many in so many ways. It's an honor to carry your same name. I love you.

I will miss uncle Ted in many different ways, but one of the funny things he always did was when he'd see my kids he'd always give them noogies and call my son, Dylan, "Little Girl" and my daughter, Morgan, "Little Boy". Being around him was fun. Of course listening to him play music with his brothers was always a blast. I love you uncle Ted...

You always would come for family at some of our saddest times. I just saw you at Jim's funeral in late October. You were lighthearted and had a smile in your eyes despite knowing you were very ill. Fun memories were you putting dad on your Harley and music and dancing in the garage at our house. Teddy, praying you are now at peace and in a new body singing with the saints and celebrating with our family gone before. For your children, Debbie, Raymond, Terry and Edith, I reach out to you with my deepest love, hugs and tears from Florida.
