My best memory of uncle Ted when i was a little boy, was night fishing and watching all the bugs flying around the latern at the end of the boat.
I'm sorry for our loss.

I am sorry for your loss. I bowled with Ted on the Essex bowling league. He was always a fun person to be around. He will be missed.

I will always remember Ted for the kind things he did for my neighbor Mary Jane. He always answered the call with a smile.
