Ted was my first Team Leader of what would become a career in commercial insurance. He took a chance on a young intern and eventually hired me part time. He was kind and wise, doing things like buying us small Christmas gifts, when it wasn’t required. Always helpful and willing to over explain when it was clear I wasn’t getting it. He also loved jokes, which he told all the time especially when he heard a good one. I always looked up to Ted. May he rest in peace. My deepest and sincerest condolences to the family.
