We will all miss Teddy…always “Teddy”….he stood for so much more than most will ever know.
The fact that he chose to do seasonal work made him his own person. With much respect I know a lot of us
that trudge off to work every day and hate it…imagine, Teddy got to do what he loved most every day
at his choice!
