Like most here I have enjoyed and learned from the many threads and Posts Ted shared. I make my way down to the Philly show mostly to talk Hobby and look for the odd scorecard. And a few years ago I tracked down Ted at his table and said hello. I was greeted by a warm smile and a handshake. Talked about the Philly show ( This year is 50th Anniversary ) and Hobby friends we shared. He mentioned his neighbor Phil Rizzuto and we talked Yankees. And I made sure to stop by usually with an odd piece of Rizzuto memorabilia from then on.
I am sure that for Many Nationls and Philly Shows Teds Name will come up and friends will smile and tell stories. And I am grateful that his many thoughts are preserved in his articles and here on Net54.
Rest in Peace and my condolences to his Family and Friends.
