Ted we laid your ashes to rest as you asked, next to your Mom and Dad in Porterville. I hope you passed from building snow angels long enough to smile down upon us.

Ted lived across the street from us for many years. We soon became best friends for over 30 years. We will always remember him and his kindness.
