We met Ted as he often held down the corner seat at Gatto's Restaurant & Bar during the dinner hour. We got to know Ted and learned a little of his life story about the Navy Seabees, the electrician's union, his family, his life as a Cubs fan and his travel adventures to places like the Great Wall of China, Carribean Isalnds and others. He was always kind and inquired about our son when he wasn't with us. May Ted rest in peace.

Hope, Alison and Kevin. Sorry we could not be there to celebrate your father's life. Please know we are with you in spirit! Your dad was always so much fun, I miss the days of our youth when we were all together. Love you all very much!!

Ted was a friend. A stand up guy who always had a smile, we enjoyed spending time with him, a great conversationalist and awesome Cubs fan, a proud sailor and an IBEW brother.
He's already missed.
May he rest in peace.
