To my dearest cousins; It was with much sadness that I learned of Uncle Ted's recent struggles with his health. I offer my condolences to your family, as I also offered to my mother, Irene. My prayers are with you. Uncle Ted was such a vibrant man who had the gift of knowing a person's true essence by looking into their eyes. And in return, what we would see in his eyes was a sparkling glint and great warmth. I dedicated a photograph to his memory, in which I wrote: "It is his brilliant smile, the sparkle in his eyes and his loving energy, that I will remember . . . always." Look for the blazing tulip photo on my National Geographic "Your Shot" gallery. http://yourshot.nationalgeographic.com/photos/367386/ I think Ted would have liked this photo. With deepest sympathy, Kim
