He spent his final days surrounded by his loving family. On May 15, 2020, Dad went to Jesus where he lives in everlasting glory!
Ted leaves behind his wife of 63 years, Anne Foster, and his five children: Jackie French (husband Alan), Denise Davies (husband Mark), Mary Foster McGautha, Edward Foster and Thomas Foster. He was a proud grandfather of Jade Hamilton (husband Brennan), Adam French (wife Jessica), Sean French (wife Brittany), Katie Cornelius (husband Carter), Shane Davies, Bella Davies, Dominic Davies, Lexi Foster, Rachel Foster, Taylor Keifer, Taylor Hopper and 9 great-grandchildren: Dion, Mia, Giovanni, Raelyn, Louella, Deklyn, Preslee, William and Kinsley.
Ted, Papa Teddy, was a brilliant and compassionate physician and surgeon who loved to heal people. When he was not busy saving lives, he loved nothing more than spending time with his family, especially, if it meant being out in nature, fishing, hunting, visiting the zoo or attending sporting events. He enjoyed the laughter of children, especially, of his grandchildren and great-grandchildren! His beautiful smile and funny faces are forever in our minds and hearts! Papa Teddy is dearly missed but forever cherished!!!
