Ted made some wonderful products and was a hoot to talk to on the phone. He was very generous with his time, maybe to a fault. I called him up one day to ask about something or other and he kept me on the phone for over an hour. About a week later he sent me a M98 trigger with a note saying he enjoyed out conversation. That led to another call so I could thank him and another hour on the phone.
He was a really nice guy and will be missed. My prayers go out to his family.
