Theodore Gurich Obituary
In addition to loving life, Ted loved his family and friends completely and without reserve. His humor was known and appreciated by all. He previously performed stand up comedy and was a comedy script writer. Ted won several script writing contests over the years, and he continued writing up until the time he passed.
A celebration of life will be held this Sunday, June 23, with immediate family and close friends.
The family appreciates the generous outpouring of thoughts and prayers. Please share your loving (or funny!) memories of Ted below.

Chris and Mark, I smile remembering such fond memories of our families together when we were kids . Your father was always so kind and hilarious. They just added a chair for your dad next to mine at that epic poker game in heaven.
April, Much love to you.

When we think of Ted we always fondly remember this one night where we all gathered around the dining room table in Jules' and Marks house. He had written a draft, a new idea how to approach Dracula. And since myself, Fritz and Alex were vacationing in CA, he thought it would be a good idea for all of us to get together and record a demo tape of the draft. We all had different roles to speak (Alex was Renfield for instance) and we started the recording. To make a long story short: it was one of the funniest nights of my life. It took us way past 2 or 3 o'clock the next morning, but we've got it done and it was absolutely great.
What I loved most about Ted was his whit, his unbeatable humor, his big heart and his charme. Yes, undenyably, he had a lot of charme. Ted, you have been a great father-in-law and friend to our daughter. Thank you so much for everything. You'll always be in my heart and mind. May angels guide you to your final resting place and may you find the peace and quiet you were looking for throughout your life. Rest in peace, old friend!

The tears still flow, I miss my brother. The best friend I ever had. He was my roll model all my life. I aspired to be like him, but never quite made it. We played together a lot as kids and that lasted until a week ago. Ted, I know you will bring laughter and joy in haven and please say "Hi to Mon, Dad and Nancy and give them a big hug for me. More tears..... Hope to see you soon...

Ted was one of the happiest people I ever met and he made everyone around him happy as well. He had a smile that filled your heart. Rest well, Teddy. You will be profoundly missed. Much Love!
