Ted was born and raised in Lemberg, SK. In his accomplished career as an accountant, he worked for the City of Regina, McMillan Bathurst, Brandt Industries, and Blessed Sacrament Parish. He was deeply committed to his faith and loved to connect with other members of his community. Ted made many lifelong friends through his participation in Knights of Columbus and the Christ the King Parish choir. He was a caring and compassionate husband, father, and grandfather, and provided exceptional care and love to Doreen as she battled cancer.
