Teddy is survived by his daughters, Mariah and Jessica, his father Ted Sr., his mother Debbie, and stepmother Corey. He is also survived by his brothers and sisters: Tony and wife Cindy, Tim and wife Nicole, Kevin and wife Heather, Christopher, Corinna and husband Gary, and Tammy and husband Gus, as well as his nieces and nephews.
Teddy was humble, generous, sweet, and passionate about helping others. He wore his heart on his sleeve and had a contagious smile and laugh. He was a diehard 49er fan and enjoyed tailgating with his friends. He loved the outdoors, camping, fishing, and hanging out with his family. He was down for anything and lived life to the fullest. His greatest love of all was his Pretty (Mariah) and there was nothing he wouldn't do for her. Despite living a life of challenges, he overcame his demons and was able to fully earn back his family's trust and respect. Throughout his journey, his family's love for him never wavered and he became an inspiration to them and those of the paths he crossed.

"It's only through mistakes we make
We learn where we went wrong.
It's only when we're far from home
We realize where we belong......
Its only when all hope seems lost
And our weary journey seems so far,
When all the worlds against you,
We learn how strong we really are....."
