Ted was born in Winnipeg on November 5, 1936, and grew up on the family farm in Marquette.

Learning many skills on the farm, he went on to a fulfilling career as a mechanic and welder. Ted spent many enjoyable winters in Arizona, first with Réjane and later with Yvonne, making many new friends and wonderful memories. He especially enjoyed traveling, fishing, golf, country music and old-time dances.
