Rest in peace cousin Ted's. I never got to tell you your green eyes came from your great-grandpa Glenn Charlie Rogers (Grandma Betty's dad).

My favorite memory is a picture on the deck at my house. Grandma Betty squatting down, holding her precious Grandchildren. Ted (2), Tom (3), and Tricia (3). So much love in that picture.
