What a cherished friend. It is very rare to have friends for approx. 35 years and know that you can talk to them about anything. I will remember Teddy when I see guys ice-fishing or when I’m out in the woods and gazing over a serene lake. When I hear Tom Petty songs, I’ll remember Ted attending SPAC w/me in younger days. We joked w/nicknames on the phone; he was my stud guy and he called me his red-hot mama. I’ll always keep him in my heart.
Thank you for being such a wonderful father figure in my life. I will miss you the kind, generous person that you were and cherish the memories that we shared.
All my love – Jessica Palange
