God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I have known Ted all my life. His parents were my godparents and we visited together for many occasions through out our childhood. He was always positive and had a smile on his face. When he was a freshman at West Point, I visited him along with his parents and attended a couple of the first Christmas activities. Here is a photo of him at a BD party for my sister in the high chair. He is on the left, 1954
