Rullo Family: 
Teddy was my cousin whom I have not seen in many years. I just happen to be reading the Delco Times and saw Teddy's obituary from last March. My prayers are with your family. Teddy' mon, dad, brothers and sister were always good to me- I have fond memories of all of them. Teddy was special. Obviously many others felt the same. What a wonderful legacy!

Dear Helen and family, We are at a loss for words as to how to even offer any comfort for the loss of this great family man and friend. You, your family and Ted will be in our thoughts and prayers forever.We have wonderful memories and we wish that the world could have many, many more like him. We are so sorry for your loss.

To Mrs. Rullo and Ted's family, I was deeply saddened to hear of Ted's passing. I met Ted a number of times over the years in connection with the carwash equipment business, and he was a great guy to be around.  Please accept my deepest condolences on your loss.

Dear Helen and family.  So sorry for your loss. It has been many years since we have seen each other, but you both have not been forgotten. My prayer and thought are with you.

Chris, your Dad was such a special person – he was “the man”.  I remember his laugh, his smile, him singing to “who let the dogs out” and sweating profusely.  David has the fondest memory of being at their house in Oakton on that Thanksgiving night and all of you girls sitting around the dining room table drinking and laughing about the old days.  He knew from that night on what a special man your Dad was and always admired him.  It's just not fair, he was too young. 
 
Please pass along my condolences to your family. We are so sorry for your loss – he was an amazing man and I know what an important influence he has been to you and how much you all loved him.



Christine  - there are no words that i can come up with that will console you at this time.  Your Dad was a walking saint and I know you know that.  My heart hurts hearing this news.  I hope that in due time you, and your AMAZING family, will be able to turn your sorrow and pain toward the celebration of what was unquestionably a life worth celebrating given the legacy your Dad, and everyone's friend, leaves behind.

I am so sorry and so sad too for your loss.  Please let your Mom and sisters know that you and your family are in our prayers.

Mike

Christine - I was told about your Dad's passing and wanted to express my condolences.  My dad passed last year and I know they both knew each other as you and I did during our work day's.  Your dad was always a free spirit and solid leader.  He will be missed by many.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and all your family during this time and always.
Eric

 would like to send my condolences regarding the death of your Dad.  It's such a shock.  I understand how painful this must be for you and your family.   
I will remember Ted for his jovial spirit and the kindness he shared with everyone he met. He always had a story to tell and was the life of the party.  He was a very special man.
Please be comforted by the thought that many people hold fond memories of your Dad. He touched so many lives.
May God bless you and your family during this time and always.

Our prayers are with you and your family.  When I look back on my time at Mobil (1983 - 2000) I cannot think of a person that was so highly thought of and so well liked by everyone.  Just saying his name would bring a smile to people's faces.  He knew how to live life to the fullest and touched so many people along the way.

I have not spoken to him directly in quite some time but it always felt like we were in touch....he had that way about him.  He was the manual version of social media....well before his time.  We were connections on the "linked in" site but I have always felt connected to him.....who didn't want to be connected to a winner with such positive energy and a huge heart.

Please accept my condolences and I wish the best for you and your family.

To the Rullo family, 
We wish, as a family, that we could be there for you in this unimaginable time. Please know that we are here for you, just as "Uncle Teddy," was here for us and everyone with whom he came in contact with, always. You have all contributed to who I am today and there is no greater gift than having Uncle Teddy and the Rullo family in my familys' life. We are deeply saddened by this tragic loss and will keep you in our prayers. There will never be another Uncle Teddy. God Bless.

Thoughts and prayers out to your family at this difficult time.  Memories of Saint George's grade school in Steve's class.

"Dear Mrs. Rullo, We just heard of Ted's tragic passing this morning and we're still in shock. Terrible loss of a great man, gentlman, mentor and a friend. He was allways there for us when needed with advise and kind words. He will be greatly missed. May God Bless you and your family"

Unfortunately I did not have the pleasure of meeting Mr Rullo but I am friends with Alicia and in hearing her speak of her Father was how I knew what an amazing Husband, Father, Grandfather and all around amazing man he was. My prayers go out to you all during this difficult time. May God give you all strength and peace. He will live in your hearts always.

Our Prayers are with the Rullo family. May God bless you all and give you peace. Your loved one will be always in your hearts and in your memories.

Dear Helen and family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your great memories bring you comfort.

Dear Helen & her beautiful family:

I've learned that we are all husbands & wives, mothers & fathers, brothers & sisters, sons & daughters..... and when one of us hurt, we all hurt.

We live & laugh together and we suffer together. This is one of those times we all suffer.

My memories of your family are strong and good and numerous and long lasting.

My faith in the God of my understanding allows me to realize how much love and beauty your family will share the "next time" you are all together.

I love you.
Vince

Dear Helen and Family
I'm was saddened to hear of Ted's passing. Please accept my sincere sympathy.  I've known Ted since grade school at St. George's, in Glenolden.  He was certainly one of the good guys.

Dear Mrs. Rullo and family:

With heartfelt condolences on Ted's passing. Although it is difficult to see beyond the sorrow today, may reflecting back to the many happy memories of Ted sustain and comfort you today and forever!  Ted was one of a kind and was one of my favorite clients during my career with Mobil.  His strong leadership skills and personal touch went a long way in making the Florida NBU a great place to work.  May the grace of the Lord be with you during this difficult time.  Peace and Love!

To Mrs. Rullo and family, you don't know me and that probably puts me in a huge company of friends. I met Ted through my dealings with ExxonMobil and I have to tell you I learned more about how to do business and have fun. Ted and I were friends, but not the type that communicated very often. But when I would see him it was just like we saw each other yesterday! That was a gift he had and shared. He always told me "you got no juice!" Ted had more juice than anyone I have met! Please accept my deepest sympathy as, we all (friends), share the loss of one great man. 
Sincerely, Bill Lee

Helen, Alicia and family: With our deepest sympathies and love to your amazing family. Ted will always be with you.

Mrs. Rullo-
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during your time of loss.
Tim Ruhl

Helen,
Our hearts go out to you. We miss Ted. God bless.
Ron and Beverly

Ted was my supervisor here in Fairfax, he was a wonderful supervisor.  I have not spoken to him in years and I was very sad to hear that he had passed.  Mrs. Rullo and family, my prays are with you and I'm so sorry for you loss.  You may have lost your husband, father, grandfather and friend but take comfort in knowing that God has gained a wonderful, fun loving angel in heaven.  To be absent in the world is to be present with the Lord.  Ted will be missed..

Alicia and Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this very sad time.  There are those who only dreamed of having a father such as yours so it stands to reason that the intensity of your relationship will be the intensity of your grief.  Hold close those memories.
Joanne, Michael, and Elizabeth

Sending an abundance of love & peace! May you find joy that your dad has gone to be with his Heavenly Father! I'm praying for all of you in this incredibly difficult time!

Dear Mrs. Rullo, Christine, Alicia, Carrie, and Jenna, My heart stopped when I heard the news of your loss. I am sure you all know what an amazing person your husband/ father is.  My wish is the outpouring of love and support through all of this will somehow make things a little easier.  I still have the vision in my head of when I first took notice of Mr. Rullo.  I was watching game film my freshman year at Pope and I saw this guy jump in the air (what looked like six inches) with his hands high up and his heels to his butt after a touchdown.  He was so excited.  What I soon came to realize was he carried that same love and excitement with him daily.  I admire the way he always added a little sarcasm into the mix. This seemed to always make everyone smile.  I love your family and already miss Mr. Rullo.  I know it is only a matter of time before we see him again.  I hope his memories and your love for him will carry you all until that day.  I am so sorry for your loss.  My family's thoughts and prayers are with you.

Christine and Family,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.  Big hugs from here!!!!

Dear Rullo Family,
I am so sorry about the loss of Mr. Rullo. I can remember many great memories of him and your family from growing up as the little Stevens. I specifically have a flashback from when I was little and your dad was on the dance floor at a wedding or get together and he was encouraging me to dance and making me laugh. He was a great man who was always so kind and had a smile on his face. I pray that God brings you comfort during this difficult time.  
Love,
Jenna (Stevens) Jenkins

Dear Rullo family, we are very sorry about Ted. He will certainly be missed by all. We love you all.

To all of the Rullo family...I can not think of Mr. Rullo without having a smile on my face.  He is a part of so many of my memories of growing up, and I know that I am not alone in that.  Please know you are all in my prayers.  With much love, Jill (Mulhall) Carignan

Dear Rullo Family, 
My sincerest condolences go out to your family at this time.  Mr. Rullo was an amazing man who loved his life and family very much.  He did a fabulous job raising his four daughters.  I wish my father was half as good of a father as he was.  I will continue to pray for your family.   God bless you!  Kim Hardgrove

Dear Rullo Family,
Although I did not have the pleasure in knowing Mr. Rullo, I have known his daughter Alicia for many years.  I would like to send my sincere condolences to the entire Rullo family!  I am so sorry for your loss..........he sounds like a wonderful man who was loved by many!!  You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Lorie Beche

Rullo Family - I am so sorry to hear the news.  I have so many fond memories of time spent with Uncle Ted from our crazy trips to the final four to giving me great career advice.  He was one of the good guys and will missed by many.  Sending my thoughts and prayers your way.  
Love and Hugs, Christine

Dear Helen and family, as you know your husband and father was a great man who positively impacted many lives with his wisdom, guidance, perspective and zest for life.  He had a way about him that would brighten up a room and he always made you feel like you were the most important person around.  I had the pleasure of working for him, organizing 7 golf tournaments with him and am blessed that I had the opportunity to speak to him last Thus.  He was in great spirits.  He definitley left this world a better place than before he was here and will be missed!!!

With love,
The Blaise family

Jenna and family,
We love you and are keeping you in our prayers.  So shocked to read of this, the few times I had the luck to be in his company, his infectious smile and love of his family permeated the space.
What a beautiful legacy lives on in his children and grandchildren. Your sorrow is shared by so many.

Rullo Family...It is obvious from the strength and character of the children he raised that he is a great man that will be dearly missed and never forgotten.  Take comfort in knowing that he has already been welcomed in to the gates of Heaven and is in the loving arms of our Maker.  I pray for strength and peace for the you during this difficult time of grieving.

Dear Rullo Family,

My condolence are with you all, as you deal with the sudden loss of a great life lived by Ted. He has always been an inspiration and role model of how to care about people and their issues. I will always remember his energy and enthusiasm of living life to the fullest. 

May the grace of God continue to keep you in perfect peace during your bereavement.

Love John M Goodwin and Family

Words are not enough in times like these but just know that my thoughts and prayers are with you guys.

Helen and Girls,  Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers during these difficult times.  The memories of the "good times" at Pope are many and will remain with the people who were fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to share time with such a caring, energetic person.  Ted was loved and he will be missed.  Tim and Sue Koerber

Ddear Rullo Family,
My thoughts are with you all and am mournful for your loss.  Mr. Rullo was a grea guy and always had a smile and a pat on the back for everyone.  As a confused high school student, I always knew that Mr. Rullo could be counted on to say something nice and encouraging and always at the right moment.  I'll keep you all in our prayers and wish you peace and serenity.  I'm sure he is surrounding you all with light and love in all that you do.  All our best, Becky Broadway and family

Dear Helen and girls, It is with such a heavy heart that I send my condolences. I can't think about Ted without seeing his smile and feeling his positive energy. He was one of the most devoted husbands and fathers I have ever known. I have so many wonderful Pope John Paul and St. Joan of Arc memories. He gave so much of himself to anyone or any project that was in need. We will never forget him and will carry him in our heart always. With love and prayers, Valerie Russell and Family.

Dear Helen, Christine, Alicia, Carrie & Jenna,
There are no words to express how very sad we are.  Our hearts are breaking!  Ted was such a terrific friend and person.  He made every gathering like a "party" that everyone wanted to attend!  He had such a special relationship with all of his friends that made each one of them feel as if they were his best friend.  He was our "moral compass"  treated everyone so kindly and fair, always knew the right thing to do.  He loved & talked of his family so often that I feel as if I have known all of you forever.  Although he is gone and our sadness is so profound, I consider myself so very lucky to have know Ted and his family, you are all very special people.
Mary Mottle

A great competitor on the courts with an infectious smile.

It was an honor to be in the company of such an accomplished man.

Dear Helen and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. In the times I played tennis with Ted I felt his wonderful personality permeate the court. it was an honor to have played with him. He will be sorely missed at PGA.
Lovingly, 
Howie Kesslin

It is a shock and the sense that there is a huge hole left where Ted always was at PGA, we believe will never go away. We cannot even imagine the hole left in all your hearts. Time will heal. But Ted will ALWAYS be missed.
Bob & Lisa

Ted was one of a kind. He was always interested in what he could do for you. His success in business, and life was possible because of his unending kindness, persistence, and loyalties.
I know that my success can be attributed to his leadership example. Love ya Ted, miss you too.

So very sorry for the loss of Teddy, the memories of his life and contributions
he made, will hopefully sustain the family and friends doing this difficult time.
Troy Anderson (Fredericksburg,Tx.)

I will miss my best friend.  I will think nothing but good thoughts of him and remember all of the wonderful times he made possible. God has taken him and he will care for him until we meet him once again.

Helen and Family,
We had some great times with Uncle Ted during the Mobil days!!
He taught me to think outside the box and that loyalty and hard work are always rewarded. So even today when confronted with difficult decisions, I say to myself what would Ted do? Well Ted you have never guided me wrong and will live in my heart forever..

Mrs. Rullo, Christine, Alicia, Carrie and Jenna, I am so sorry for the sudden loss of Mr Rullo. What I will remember most will be Mr Rullo's sense of humor. Remember this! Live your lives to the fullest, as he did! 
We love you! Todd, Jenn and Ana Lucia

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.

Dear Helen, Girls, and the Rullo Family,
We are so very sorry to hear the news of Ted's passing.  Ted always had a smile on his face and he had a heart of gold.  Everyone who knew him, instantly fell in love with him.  His kindness to others knew no bounds. We all lost a very dear, loving man. Our prayers are with you all.  God bless you.
Rosie & Larry Blinchikoff

"Dear Helen I will never forget the fond memories and the guidance Ted gave me during the years at Mobil, he was a mentor and a friend, stern when he needed to be, fun when it was time, consistently honest and always a true to his word. Thanks for the memories Uncle Ted"

To the Rullo family, Words cannot capture the great sense of loss we all feel. Ted was a man among men, and had an enormous impact on my life, as well as countless others. I, along with you, shared some of the the best times of my life with Uncle Ted. He was a mentor, friend, confidante, and one of my Boys! Our families will always be bonded. I am proud to say my life was better as a result of knowing  Ted. My comfort is in knowing the good Lord needed Ted at his side to make heaven a better place We will miss him dearly.
