Sure to be missed
So sorry to hear, prayers out to family and friends. I will miss hearing from Big Teddy, he so often spoke from the heart.

Rest In Peace, Sir. Thank you for your service, courage and example to the end. You donated to a brother's defense fund a few days ago, even as a quadruple bypass patient who had concerns of his own.
I'm sure you are irreplaceable to Maggie, and I pray for her and your family to stay strong as they mourn your loss and celebrate your life well lived.

I have no idea what Big Teddy looked like, how old he was, but I felt he was a great guy and a steadfast SF soldier. I had an image in my minds eye.
I will really miss seeing his posts and comments.
RIP BT.

I saw the thread but I thought you just have the wrong doctor. I had no idea it was this dire. You were a BIG contributor this this forum. You will be missed. As the The Reaper has said, say hello to COL Moroney, we miss his input as much as your own. Rest easy.

Blue skies, fair winds, and soft landings. Rest in peace Big Teddy; prayers for Maggie. Say hello to the guys at the AA.

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

What sad news. I never met Big Teddy, but after only 2 years on this site I felt as though I knew him like my next door neighbor and had a mental picture of what he looked like.
Rest in Peace, Big T.
My prayers are for Maggie and the family during this time of sorrow. That they will be comforted knowing that you served your country well, and that you were a friend to all of us here.

Rest in peace, QP Big Teddy.
Thank you for your years of service to this great country. You demonstrated the courage and positive mentality that is possessed by only few, your small band of brothers, even to your last day on this earth.
Your family will be in my prayers.
