Dear Judy and family,  
We were so very sorry to learn of the recent passing of dear Ted - a kind and gentle man and wonderful back door neighbour. We enjoyed our many conversations over the years over the back fence. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Sylvia, Bryan & Ben Doran

Judy, Bruce, and family, 

Our sincere condolences for your loss. We are happy to have had the privilege of meeting Ted a few years ago.  

You are in our thoughts during this difficult time. 

Jen, Fred, Sierra,  and Léa

Dear Judy, Rob and Bruce and families, 
It is with so much sadness I send my love to you all.  He was such a kind, smart and funny man.  A cherished, dear friend for so many years.
  We raised boys, lost our parents and welcomed our grandchildren together.  Not to mention the sailing and Marriage Encounter adventures. 
Love and blessings to you all. 
Nancy 

Dear Judy and family,

As you go through this time of sadness, may you know in your heart how very much others care.
I shall always remember Ted as a friend and generous person, always willing to help with the many chores when we served on the Executive of the OMGTR.
May he rest in peace.

Malcolm Stanton.

Judy, Bruce and Rob

Having met the Jackson family when I was young, it is with the greatest of love how much we mourn his passing and pass on our condolences to Judy and her family. I remember the night they took us in, when a storm blew away our camping tent. They fed us brownies - something that a kid with a sweet tooth never forgets.

Ever since, our families have been very close. Sailing together and taking me in when my parents were away.

Though I moved away years ago and lost contact, Ted was an influence on me getting into the computer field, with his pioneering Commodore 64 computer setup and later on with his Y2K mitigation work.  A true modern hero.

Love from Nova Scotia,
Stephen, Tracey and Olivia

In 2011 I became the president of the Ontario MGT Register and began to work with Ted who was both the OMGTR's treasurer and its Web Master. Ted helped me through with a lot of growing pains those first few months of executive work. He was always there to offer advice with his huge knowledge base and enthusiasm. As time progressed, he slowly pulled back from club management but his work still lives on with our web page.
Thank you Ted, for all of your advice and friendship. 
God bless to Judy and the family.
Dave and Shari Elms.

Judy, Bruce and Family

Our deepest sympathies to you and your family on the passing of Ted - it was our pleasure to have met him - he was such a kind and gentle soul.

You are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Thinking of you (especially our shared memories of family visits at Grandma Coon's apartment!) and wishing you comfort during such a sad time.   Love Lisa (and Brian) in Portland Oregon xoxo

Springboard's Board of Directors, staff and the youth we support join me in providing our sincerest sympathies Judy on the loss of your wonderful husband, Ted.  

I have such fond memories of getting to know you and Ted and of your tremendous support in enabling a special scholarship,  as legacy for your dad, Mac and your mother Dorthy.  Ted did such fine due diligence in setting up the Domac Fund (known also as the  Cameron Springboard Scholarship) with the Toronto Foundation and the annual income from investment is supporting at risk youth, with financial needs, pursue post secondary education.

I so enjoyed seeing you and Ted every year at our annual Celebration of Springboard achievements and it wonderful sharing a glass of wine with both of you.  Ted always had a playful glint in his eyes and sure had an interesting sense of humour!

These are challenging times  indeed Judy and I know you have a wonderful family and a great network of support which will be of comfort to you.  My best and look forward to chatting with you.   Marg  Stanowski.  


To Bruce, Darlene and family,

Our thoughts are with you.  May you find comfort in happy memories of a good man.  

Yazmine and Terry

In 2004 Ted, Judy & Cassidy braved visiting our tiny cottage in the winter.  Luckily we had tons of snow and beautiful weather. We were able to go exploring, skating and cross country skiing.  Ted at Sauble Falls...

I was always impressed that Ted knew so much about old British roadsters... and could keep them running!  Of course Cassidy was along for the ride!

Our prayers are with you and your family Judy. So many memories we have of sailing, the winter gatherings at the farm, marathon bridge games. our Marriage Encounter weekends and your family looking after our children whenever we were teaming a Toronto weekend.  I can hardly see for tears as I type this.  We will love you through the grief. Blessings. Walter & Deborah Marshall

Dear Judy,  

we were very sad to hear about Ted's passing. We will always remember him as such a kind and happy person.  

You and your family are in our thoughts,

Patricia and Gerald

Dear Judy and family,
We have wonderful memories of many a bridge afternoon and lovely dinners with you and Ted, his quiet often quirky sense of humour and his uncanny ability to forecast a bridge play even before it entered any of our heads.  We loved his affection for his family and his care and association with antique cars and his obvious pride in his own antique car and the journeys you took in it. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Love, Carol and Bob

Judy, Rob and Bruce
 Words can't express how much we miss  Tedward.  Last night we raised our glass to Ted, remembering many of our fun times over the past 43 years (less 8 days); the seafood binge buffets, the joint 50th bday party , Sarasota, Cabo and St. Louis, sailing, new years weekends, graduations, weddings, births and funerals - laughter, tears and long talks.  Ted has been an integral part of our lives for many years and for that we are privileged and eternally thankful.
 
Love you all.

Tom and Barb

Dear Judy 
We were so sorry to hear that Ted passed away. We will remember him as a wonderful host at Book Club barbecues, an engaging neighbour, and a family man who enjoyed long walks with you and your dog Cassidy. 
Eric and I send you and your family our condolences and hope that the coming days are filled with treasured memories of the years you had together.

Judy, Rob & Bruce the memories are countless and so rich. My love and prayers to you and your families as you read the stories of a life well lived. "Ted .. has Judy got buns" will forever ring in my ears or Ted sharing his chocolate glazed donut with diabetic Dave by cutting it horizontally 🙂
What great memories... weddings,  funerals, New year's and Governors Levees. Hugs (( )) and love to you all.
Charlie and though you've not met, Liz too.
