Sorry for your loss. Prayers to him and the whole family.
I had the privilege to work with Ted in the 80's at Northrop Defense Systems. He was one of the greatest programming minds I every encountered. I could do the work of 10 other programmers, and his personality was larger than life.
I remember celebrating New Years one evening at his house in Illinois. He convinced us that we would make $100 dollars for every pinto bean we ate on New Years Eve. LOL. We ate a lot of cans of pinto beans that evening.
The "fire drills" in his Rolls Royce were also a great memory. Who else would let you drive their Rolls, but Ted. His never ending fantastic stories, made his so unique.
I will say he "LIVED" everyday and that was a pleasure to witness and participate in during his time in Illinois.
God Bless.
