Ted was my neighbor across the street when Sheryl and I moved to CO in 1994. As we got to know one another we discovered that he and my mom went to the same high school in Fort Dodge, IA. Ted was a few years older, but before my mother passed away in 1999, Ted got to meet her and they shared stories of their school and town. Ted was so gracious to even visit my mother's grave in the same site of other Sweeney family members. A small world it is.
Ted was also very supportive of me and extremely complimentary and positive to be around. We would catch up with one another at church after we move to another home in the same neighborhood. I was able to see Ted a few months back when his hair appointment was right after mine with our neighbor and friend Bob. This was certainly good timing given the changes he was going through. Ted will be missed as he left a very positive impression for those fortunate enough to know him
