“ Nancy, I am going to miss Ted so much. You and Ted were one of the first two people to friend Liz and I when we moved to Brookhaven in 1974. He was always so upbeat and kind to everybody. Maybe I shouldn't say this but I will always remember Ted and I sitting at the service station and trying to make Pot Lofton mad. I will remember our church mission trip to West Virginia. Ted and I paired up and hit the streets to tell residents how southern baptists served our Lord. Also though, Ted and I loved Mississippi State. I will be thinking of you, Laura and Stephen in the coming days; May GOD wrap his arms around you. ”
