Audrey & Karen, a little light to guide Ted's journey. I can just imagine him bargaining with St. Peter at the Pearly Gates. I hope he was able to retain his amusing sense of humor throughout his life.
I have not seen him in many years, however my memories are grand of a sweet funny man.
May he rest in God's peace.
With Sympathy & Friendship,
Mary Coelho
