  1. Having learned to bartend at the candle beginning in 1981 thur 84, I got to know and appreciate what a great guy Teddy was to be around. Sorry to say, I have continued some of the wonderful bad habits I have aquired from Ted. Scotch is my best friend. Thanks Ted, for all the great benefits, and life lessons that you and the Candle gave me. You will be missed. P.S. sorry I wrecked the company van.
