Ted Perlman Obituary
Jun 14, 1915 - Mar 3, 2010
Longtime York business man. Passed away in Lincoln, NE. Ted was born in Lincoln NE to Moses and Rose Perlman. His plan was to follow in the footsteps of his brothers and become a doctor. However, the Great Depression prevented him from attending medical school. He was united in marriage to Rosalyn Lashinsky, December 26th, 1939. After a short career in the insurance and bill collection business, he went into the auto parts business with his father-in-law. In October, 1951, he took advantage of an opportunity to buy York Auto Parts and moved his family to York, NE. He owned and operated that store until his retirement in 1982. He was involved in several organizations in York, including the York Chamber of Commerce, city councilman and the Little League baseball program. He also served as chairman of the board for First Federal Savings and Loan of York. He took great pride in being a 50 year member of the York Rotary Club and served as its president in 1960. He was a devoted father to his three children, Harvey (Susan) Perlman of Lincoln, NE, Gary (Linda) Perlman of Scottsdale, AZ and Penny Parks of Marietta, GA. He is also survived by five grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his wife, Rosalyn, three brothers and a sister.

My deepest sympathy in the loss of your father. I never did meet him, but saw many pictures of he and your Mother, with my Dad and Dorothy, and heard a lot of funny stories. Dad was so touched when Ted drove down to Falls City to surprise him on the 80th anniversary of the Auto Supply celebration. He was always referred to as Dad's best friend!

Harvey, Gary, and Penny,
My deepest sympathies on the passing of your dad.
While we see or talk to one another only occasionally anymore, I think of you often and the history between our families. This sad time brings back many happy memories. You have a great family; I'm sure Ted was proud of all of you.

The black type of an obituary seldom does justice to the story of one's life. And that is the case with Ted Perlman, whom I was honored and very privileged to call a good friend for the past 17 years.
Ted had a wonderful sense of humor and a knack of knowing when a friend needed to laugh to make a day better.
While he was a successful businessman, Ted felt his greatest achievement was the character of his three children. He was so proud of his children and grandchildren -- his eyes sparkled when he talked about them -- and so hopeful for his great-grandchildren.
He was a patriot who loved his country, state and community. He was a loyal and devoted fan of University of Nebraska-Lincoln sports, especially football and basketball.
He lived a long and good life with his beloved Roz at his side for 68 of those years.
Everyone whose life was touched by Ted Perlman is a better person for having known him.
I already miss him.
