To All of the family: So sorry to hear about Ted passing. Lean on each other and most of all, your Heavenly Father! IHaving just gone through my own dad passing in November, and Mom, 3 years ago....I know too well-the feeling of your heart breaking, and tears not stopping. Think on all the great memories Ted gave all of you, and how much he dearly loved you. Think about him walking with Jesus now, reunited with his family that have gone on before him. God will give you the strength to get through this-I know....because He alone was my strength. Know I love all of you, and am praying for the peace of God to comfort you!

We were deeply saddened by the loss of your father. We know that death is difficult to understand. It sometimes leave a trail of grief and disappointment, but be not dismayed, joy will return to you again. It may take some time, but joy once again is on the horizon. We are confident that your father left you with many great memories: the great things he has done for you and your family and all that the wonderful things he has instilled in you. His precious memories will live forever as well as his love for you. Be strong, Ashley. Better days are coming. We will certainly continue to keep you and your family in our prayers.
