Ted, as he liked to be called, had a youthful spirit and was always the ultimate jokester. He loved to make others laugh. He often spoke of his childhood growing up with all his brothers and sisters and their summers at “Little Nana’s” house in Billerica Ma. He was the biggest Beatles and John Lennon fan. His grandchildren often referred him as “John Lennon”. He was the BIGGEST Boston Bruins fan and was a fantastic goalie in his younger years. Hockey held a special place in Ted’s heart, but most of all he adored his family. He ALWAYS told you that he loved you and you KNEW it and you FELT it. He will be greatly missed and we will miss him forever and ever... As he would say “Love you the mostest, toastest, dominostis disco!”
A funeral mass will be at Saint Francis Parish 115 Wheeler Rd, Dracut, MA, on Saturday, September 25th, 2021 at 9AM. A celebration of life will follow at his daughters home in Dracut, MA.
