Born in Phoenix in 1943 to Nathan and Josephine, he was among the inaugural four year graduating class of Central High School. He received his BS at Stanford University and JD at the University of Arizona, where he was Editor in Chief of the Law Review. A US Army veteran, he was stationed in Vietnam for 18 months, working in intelligence. He traveled extensively, and loved the beach, but lived in Phoenix his entire life where he worked as an attorney in private practice with his wife and enjoyed a long retirement. He is survived by his wife, Teresa, and their children Jonathan and Ryn. The family requests no gifts, but merely good thoughts for Ted, his family, and your own loved ones. A Celebration of Life will be held in Ted’s honor later this year for close friends.
