My condolences to Peggy, Kim, and the rest of his family. I have known Ted for quite a long time and I know he will be missed by all that knew him.
Dear Peggy, Kim and Paul,
I was so sad to hear of Ted’s death! You have been in my thoughts and prayers ever since I learned of it. Please know that I am thinking of you as the time goes by too! My hope is that the time between now and when we all see each other again will be shorter than the last time we were together…and that I am there! I think we are very close to that reunion, don’t you?
Meanwhile, enjoy all the stories and memories of Ted in these next few days and weeks! What a dear and interesting man he was…I am so glad your family and ours were a part of our Roanoke life. It was special wasn’t it?
Fondly,
Anne
I am so sorry for your loss. I know this is a very difficult time for the family. Something that has always given me comfort is a scripture at Revelation 21:4, it says, “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” I sincerely hope this brings you some comfort.
