I only knew my uncle Ted when I was a child of 7 to 12 yrs old. I looked up to him as a hero. I used to ask him questions about fire fighting because I wanted to be one someday. He was my Mom's brother. My uncle Teddy, may the good Lord take care of him now. - Posted by: Gerald Rafuse (Nephew) on: Apr 15, 2013
