Born March 26, 1955 in Glendale, California, Ted is a son of Betty Olson of Seneca and the late Leroy Olson. He was raised and educated in Burbank, California and worked as a Machinist.
Ted loved cars, especially working on muscle cars and was a fan of drag racing. He will be remembered for his enjoyment of spending time with his nieces and nephews.
Survivors include his mother Betty of Seneca and seven brothers and sisters, including Kathie Jackson of Seneca, as well as numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.
Ted was preceded in death by his father.
Services will be private, and burial will be in Evergreen Cemetery, Morris, Illinois.
How I remember Ted and his buddy, Blaine Rowland working on either the Ted's "Challanger" or Blaine's Nova. Good times they were.
ReplyDeleteI lost touch with Ted, for a while. the last time I saw him was a few days before his sister Kathie moved to Illinois. My Wife's sister is married to Ted's older brother Jeff. He has been missed.
ReplyDeleteUsed to hang out at Bob's on San Fernando Rd with Ted and Blaine and the rest of Burbank Racing Association (fake group that raced from Winchels @ Prov to Alameda on Glenoaks) he was a squirrelly guy, but knew his cars, lots of fun. Ruthe
