I will always fondly remember Ted with a great big grin on his face, and a good story to tell. Mostly I remember him sitting in his garage and greeting passing neighbours. Ted was a kind and gentle man, and was willing to help anyone, any time.
Ted and Yvonne had a unique and special partnership. Their love for one another was evident to everyone who knew them. Everything that they did – they did together, always.
I will always be grateful to Ted for his friendship. But most of all for the love, joy and caring he had for my best friend, Yvonne.
Thinking of you, Yvonne, and wishing you love and healing.
