Passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his loving family on Friday, May 13, 2016 at the age of 66. Beloved husband of Dorothy and devoted father of Jeff (Anne), Allan (Samantha) and Kyle (Meagan). Survived by sisters Karen (Brian) and Linda (Bill) and predeceased by brother Jim (Simone) and parents, Bud and Lyle. Originally from Burlington, Ontario, Ted was a Chartered Accountant by profession. A successful business career brought him to Ottawa where he made his home and raised his sons with Dorothy. His true passions were family and community service. He served on the Federal Task Force on Financial Literacy and was on the Board of Directors of the Log Farm, the Ottawa Congress Centre, the Queensway Carleton Hospital and most recently the Business Development Bank of Canada and the Perley and Rideau Veterans Health Centre. He was loved by family and friends and will be dearly missed by all.
