Our
thoughts and prayers will be with you Aunt Linda and Erin. We will not be able to comfort you or your families in person,
but please know our deepest sympathies and comfort are with you spiritually. Uncle Ted was a great man. I still remember the
first fly fishing rod he bought me and the silver metal case full of his own personally tied flies that came with it. It is
the small memories that memorialize a person for eternity. Uncle Ted will be missed by many, he has touched the lives of many.
May he rest in peace. We will pray for your strength through this difficult time.
Matt, Becky and the kids
