Ted was a friend through a mutual acquaintance, Mid Rietz. We shared several celebrations with Ted these last few years and enjoyed his company. He was prominently featured in Mid's book. Shall miss him...he is in our prayers

So sorry to hear of Ted's passing. My son Adam I got to know Ted over the past couple of years as we represented him on the sale of his Monte Vista property. Ted was the genuine article...a true gentleman...a man of his word. I pray for God's Blessings for Ted and his family.
