Yesterday a former colleague was instantly killed in a car accident. What a shock!
Ted influenced students, fellow teachers, parents and the community at large.
Ted started his career at the school I was teaching in. Throughout my career I made it a habit to keenly watch new teachers who came out with the latest teaching techniques. I learned much from Ted.
Ted was super organized so the kids had excellent material that was well presented. Parents were always well informed as Ted was an excellent communicator.
Ted came from a very promising professional hockey career. Ted decided to leave hockey and enter education. We were lucky for that choice. Through out his career he found time to coach competitive hockey teams in the community.
Ted was the best family man I ever met. He thought his wife and kids were the greatest and treated that way.
Ted became a school administrator and put his incredible effort and ideas to that leadership.
What a shock! Ted was just a few months away from retirement.
I will miss him greatly along with all the other people he came in contact with.
