I'm sorry to hear belatedly about Uncle Ted's passing. He was a big part of my favorite childhood moments, our vacations at Merryacres. Also, I think it must have been the summer of 69 we stayed at the Trinity college President's residence, this enormous Victorian house.

May you all be assured of God's compassion as you grieve.

Dear Lucille, My sincerest condolences on Ted's passing. Although I only met him once , at our Ste Anne's Class Reunion, our mutual acknowledgement of each others military service was memorable for me. He was a brilliant and courageous man who accomplished many wonderful milestones while serving the educational communities he guided. May he rest in peace.

Dear Lu and Family,

We are so very sad to read about Ted. We enjoyed each of his visits to the pharmacy (Heritage). He always had a smile for us and the words of a wise, patient, knowledgeable and understanding man. We miss him; he was a real gentleman. You are in our hearts and in our prayers.

Ted was a very special soul, who taught me much about life, relationships and life-long learning. I was blessed to have gotten a brief moment with him at the end of his life. Thank you Ted.
