Ted Pordage 1937-2007

Posted by Walt (Scarborough, Canada) on 17 August 2007 in People & Portraits.

I lost my uncle yesterday.

He fought a valiant, 3 year fight against Multiple Myeloma.

I chose this picture to put up, because I really felt it showed his playful side. It was taken on a cruise that most of my extended family on my mother's side was on, to celebrate my parent's 40th wedding anniversary.

He became ill shortly afterwards. He had a remission that was all too short after extensive treatments, fell ill again in April, and spent the last month at Mt. Sinai.

Uncle Ted, you will be missed.
