Congrats Ted! Enjoy the moment like a really good shot. Then - as any good shot - engrave that shot in your memory & aim at the pin in the National selection. Not an easy shot, but someone has to be closest to the pin.
Again congrats & good luck in the future!

Congrats to you, Ted. Glad the Long Island contingent could do a little to help out. Let us know if you need any help with the National award!

As in reality, the truth has a way of insisting upon itself. And the truth is, you have been a fine man and excellent teacher to those who have had the pleasure of crossing paths with you.
Warmest Congratulations! and know the Award confirms that which the people around you have known for quite some time.
