The third time I met Ted was it the after rendezvous party for Paul Bunyan we all put our names in the hat my nine week old niece Drew my name out of the hat. So he hands me Ollie's pistol it says treat it well. Then he says it was rigged because it was my niece did you my name I said she can't even read yet he said she could smell my scent on the ticket. The next time we met was when I went to his house in Tacoma and helped him get his tea poles on his trailer so he could go to Pacific's. While there I saw a beat up canvas bag in the middle of his clothes garage I said what a beautiful bag a year later he hands me the bag it turned out to be the bag he kept his muffins in when he went hunting renita Faust did some beautiful felt work on it and put his initials and felt on it I still use it and cherish it he was a good friend my prayers go out to you thanks
