Ted Goodman Obituary

Ted and I grew up together because our mothers were best friends. Ted was always kind and sweet. We laughed a lot together. He was a very very special guy. I will miss him dearly. Rest in peace Ted. I will miss you!!!! Xo Kathy Sackley

From the first moment I saw Ted at Rawhide, a western town in Scottsdale, Arizona, I was attracted to him. He had a beautiful head of hair.

He was a very gifted stuntman for many years. He never injured himself at all, and when you think about that, which we all should, that is really amazing! This tells us he had great skill and knew how to control and protect himself.

He also did jousting at different Renaissance fairs over the years. How I would have loved to have seen him ride his horse! What a masculine and beautiful sight that must have been!

Over the past few years, we chatted on the phone as he helped me interpret my dreams. He always gave me great insight. I soon discovered he was a highly intelligent man.

I'll never forget one time, at least a year ago, while on the phone, he had to hang up right away because he saw a woman fall outside. Several minutes later, he called me back, and naturally he helped her up, and told me she was elderly.

This tells all of us what a very compassionate man he was.

Naturally I was very shocked and saddened by this news last night. I prayed for him deeply.

He was a wonderful human being.

Ted, I will really miss you!

Ted rest in peace. I love you my dear nephew!Too much to write here. . We all love you. You are very special.

I met Ted in 1972. He was a gentle, clever and soft spoken boy/man. I'm delighted that he lived an artist's life, true to himself. I spoke with him last year for several hours and it was nice to reconnect. I'm very sad to hear of his passing. See you in heaven Ted.

Rod, Stacey, Carol and Marty,
I am so sorry for your loss. The news was shocking and extremely sad. I know we didn´t see each other that often but I definitely have special memories of Ted. I will hold these memories of my cousin forever in my heart!!!

Ted I love you. I´m so sad and sorry.

For Carol, Marty, Rod and Stacey I remember Ted well from when he was a child at Natalie and Bob's house in Morton Grove and I think seeing him as an adult at some shiva.I always knew that life didn't come easy for him and I remember Natalie worrying about it and trying to do everything she could. I'm so sorry about his death. I've known your family for over 60 years. Much love to all.

We are shocked to hear about the passing of Ted. We just talked to him on Facebook not long ago. Our condolences to his family. Thoughts and prayers to all his family. We knew Ted from school and as a friend. RIP Ted, Gina and Victor Quilici.
