Ted graduated from Richfield High School 19 May 1939 and attended school in Logan for one year. He served in the Eastern States Mission from 9 July 1941 to 5 April 1943.

He arrived in Europe on the front line 8 December 1944 and lost his life in small arms fire 9 December 1944 in a wooded area in France.
"Ted was born on Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock. He was a real good looking little boy. Had a lot of very dark hair and bright blue eyes. Number six in the family, and became the chore boy for his sisters and brothers alike. Ted developed a bit of the Irish wit from his ancestors, as well as some of the English spunk from the other side of the family. And sometimes opposed the teasing and needling he got from his older brothers. He was very fond of his sister Jane, and made a real pal of her. Would help her with the dishes if she would go with him to milk the cows. He was a very loveable child, and grew to be a fine young man."
