It has been so many years since I had seen Teddy. I babysat for you kids when you were young. Your Mom became a great friend as I grew older. I loved her dearly!!
As for Teddy, I was scared to death of him when I first met him. I was a young high school girl who was quite shy. Teddy would tease the heck out of me...just to make me blush. As I got to know him better, I started to give it back to him!! Then all Hell broke loose. He and I would tease and flirt... and see who could top the other one. Your mother would laugh her butt off!! I loved both of them so much.
You have so much to remember!! Teddy was so full of life... and loved all of you children. I am sure he was the best Bump in the world!! Cherish all of the special memories. He was such a great man!!
Love,
Shirley
