Ted will continue to be deeply loved, remembered, and missed by his family: wife of 62 years, Joan Gerrig, daughters Janice (Alan) Caine and Hope Gerrig, grandchildren Brittany and Philip Caine, and Seth Gerrig. Ted was preceded in death by his beloved sister Harriet Tullman.Friends and loved ones are invited to join us for a chapel service at 1pm on Monday, June 3rd at Beth Israel Memorial Chapel, to be immediately followed by a Cemetery Service. For further details, see Service Details tab. Shiva will be at the Gerrig residence (7482 Morocca Lake Drive, Delray Beach, FL 33446) immediately following the Cemetery Service and Tuesday from 1 pm to 4 pm.Donations in his name may be made to his favorite charities: National Jewish Health, Denver, CO (www.nationaljewish.org) or the American Heart Association (https://www2.heart.org/site/SPageNavigator/donatenow_heart.html).We hope you think of him often and as fondly as we always will; Ted was jovial, sassy, and smart as a whip. We will miss his smile, his sense of humor, and his knack for conversation.
