Jo Reck says
So sorry to read of Ted’s death. When I first moved to Buffalo Lake, he and Lisa were my next door neighbors. I remember when Austin was born, how happy he was to have a son! He was always full of jokes and smart ass comments that made everyone laugh! I remember when Lisa was working one Sunday and Ted was grilling a turkey for dinner…he fell asleep and the turkey was totally charred and inedible! That was Ted! Rest in peace my friend! You were one of a kind! Jo Reck
Harold Remme says
Our sympathy to the family and friends of Ted Case. The family of Marlowe/Alice Helling spent many joyful hours at the Case household in Fairfax. We appreciated time spent with Ted, Johnny, Peggy. More recently, Harold has gotten to know and appreciate Ted’s daughter Renae.
Unfortunately, we will be unable to attend the funeral on June 5th but our thoughts and prayers are extended to the Case family.
