  1. I too was shocked to hear of Teds passing. I also worked with Ted at WVCH in the days the station was located in the Wolf Bldg in Chester. We were in contact over the years since we had mutual friends that had connections to the station. I know his health was failing but his passing was sudden, but now he wont be suffering anymore. Thanks for all the good memories Ted, rest in peace, my friend!

  2. While still in high school (1987), I began working with Ted at WVCH 740 AM. When I became manager of the non-profit WMPH 91.7 FM, Ted volunteered his talent to record many of our announcements from 1993-2010. Ted was a friend for all those years… a great guy and legendary radio voice. Very sorry to hear of his passing.

  4. I am so very sorry to hear of Ted’s passing. We worked together at WVCH and became very good friends. We would meet for lunch every few weeks. I was worried when he didn’t return my calls. Now I know why.
