He was the second eldest child welcomed to the world. Ted received his education at Walkerville school which later after renovations became a family home. He was a farmer by trade but also a jack of all trades. In 1964, Ted went to Toronto, seeking greener pastures. He was employed as a delivery driver, delivering milk from door to door before travelling to Kastesington, Ontario for employment returning home with a car. In 1967, Ted decided to travel west for employment. He found work in the oil rigs while living in remote camps during the winter months. After his father passed away in 1969, Ted took over the family farms and farmed for several years. The last couple of years of farming, he donated the land to the World Food Bank to grow grain before selling the farms and moving to Yorkton in 2011. While in Yorkton, he was employed with a company manufacturing cabinets, as well as helping area farmers harvest grain in the fall until his health began to decline. In the meantime, and between time, Ted still had a hobby of walking the neighborhood dogs for exercise. Last but not least, Ted was an outstanding member of Knights of Columbus. Ted was predeceased by his grandparents, Nick and Mary (1928), his parents John and Mary (Wira), sister Anne Petrowsky in March 2020, nephew Elgin, Bradley (2011) and Niece Sandra (2016).
