To all of Ted's wonderful, loving family,
The loss of your father is a loss for the whole community that he served so well. His loss is a personal loss to me as I have known him for most (if not all) my life. He was so "tolerant" of me when I was like 3 or 4 and wanted to ride with him on the tractor. If he wasn't busy (like in the middle of manual grape harvest), he would almost always give in and say yes to me. As part of my life, and part of my family's life, I will miss him terribly as he was such a giving man, to his family and his community and such a loving man in many, many ways. God Bless him and your family as you mourn his loss.
