A message from Keith Bain- so much fun spent playing with Ted in the Band! Message from Frank Bain - sorry we couldn't be with you to help celebrate Ted's life, but will always remember the fun times in the Brass Band. Our prayers and thoughts are with you Dot and the family x

Grandpa was the best grandfather I could have ever asked for. Grandpa had such a big heart. He was kind, and being around him made me felt warm and at home. Like a very big hug. One of my favorite memories of Grandpa was the first time I came to New Zealand. He showed me his beloved trumpet in the garage. I wish I spent more time with grandGrandpa, Grandma and the whole Family. But being in Vietnam made that hard. Losing Grandpa is really hard. I’m grateful that in his last days, he was well cared for and surrounded by love. I hope Everyone and Grandma is okay. I know that Grandma is strong and loving. And i hope she is surrounded by lots of love. Rest easy, Grandpa. I Love You, and I’ll never forget you. You may not be here with us , but you will always be in our hearts. From your granddaughter Amy XOXOXO
