For those of you, and there are many, who knew Ted, he will be sorely missed, both as a contributor, but, more importantly...as a friend. Bless his soul, bless his family, especially that cute little granddaughter of his, climbing on his boat...

I only knew Ted from THT and talked with him many times over the last few years there. Great guy and very helpful to myself as well as many others. May you RIP buddy and thoughts and prayers to your family. The boating comunity has certainly lost one of the great ones. I'm another that was shocked to learn Ted's age.

Just goes to show you Dave, age is simply a chronological measurement...

Ironically, Ted's last post on THT was post #6000, a little tidbit pointed out by our friend here, TriumphRick...
