I worked with Ted and have known Ted for years. I loved his smile and his kind heart. He was such a kind person to be around. I will miss him and our laughs at Kroger. I am very sorry for your loss and I pray your sadness is one day filled with good memories of Ted and the good person he was. I am so very sorry .

So sorry to hear of Ted's passing, he was such a wonderful young man and will be missed by so many people. May God be with his family at this time of loss.

I would like to offer my sincere condolences to Ted's family, sorry for your loss. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us that God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope, and that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. May that bring you comfort in this time of sorrow.
