Ted was the most selfless, caring, kind and loving father to his daughters Mia and Lana. He loved his brother and sisters and all of his nieces and nephews unconditionally. He put his entire family before anything else and was the true definition of a family man. Ted was also an amazing grandfather to his 5 grandchildren and made a meaningful and lasting impression on their lives. He worked as a painter and would often highlight some of the impressive landmarks where he did work that stood the test of time, including most of his relative’s houses.
Ted loved sports, especially tennis, both watching and playing. Ted also loved his music! Not only did he love listening, singing and dancing but he also loved playing his guitar. God truly took home one of the all time greatest and we will all miss him so much!
We love you Dad, Papou, Uncle Ted, Teddy.
