Mentor, father and friend, from Meena Y.

Mr. Ted came into my life as a mentor, a father and a friend. He was there to share my laughter as well as tears, self doubts and disappointments. Whether in Dubai airport after missing a flight or after an argument with a roommate, I always found him standing just behind me.

His unconditional love and care for my people taught me the meaning of being human. There are a lot of us who live for ourselves but there are only a few who live purely for others — and Mr.Ted is certainly one of the few.

Who says men don't live forever? Of course they do. Mr. Ted will live forever in us in the form of values and morals he has passed on to us.
