Ted's passion to serve others led him to work countless hours as a Rotarian in support of projects within this community. Often on the road, chasing flea markets as "The Clip Man," he helped many to complete their dream projects by finding the perfect clip. Ted's home away from home was at Ted's Shed, but was happiest when surrounded by his family and friends at his home on the beach. With his loved one's by his side, after a long and courageous battle and the joy of many sunsets, he was welcomed Home in the light of his "Eternal Sunrise."
