Tedd and I worked at TxDOT together in Lubbock for close to 20 years. I really enjoyed our visits and respected his intelligence and calm demeanor when things would get excited. We had several Ted(d)s work at the time and we always affectionately called Tedd, 2D Tedd so folks would know which one we were talking about. My deepest condolences to Kim, Thomas and the rest of the family.
