Hello John,
Thank you for mentioning this to the wider circle.
Ted will be sorely missed, as in all that you written about him. A
gentle man as you say, and with a smile and a twinkle in his eye,
when we encountered each other. He and Neta were among the very
early colleagues of the Ei- through their Minister, the Rev Arthur
North, who as I hear it, made quite a mention of the Ecumenical
Institute in his time at the microphone. Jim was also at the
overflowing Service, paying our respects.
May peace be with us all.
Isobel Bishop.
