A reader informed me this evening that Democrat District 16 State Senate candidate, Ted Curry, passed away recently as a result of an aggressive form of cancer:
The life of Theodore Thomas Curry came to its inevitable conclusion, but far too soon, on June 5, 2018, at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, after a brief but fierce battle with an aggressive cancer. Ted will be remembered for his love of family, fitness, and fairness, his high ethics and his strong ideals.
And…
Ted Curry; father, husband, brother, son, family, friend, businessman, soldier, is gone from us far too soon, and we mourn the loss of his selfless generosity, world wisdom, cutting analysis, genuine insight, acid wit and affable discontent. How to continue without him is for us to resolve, but we can perhaps take some of Ted’s own advice from a slogan of his political campaign and move #forwardtogether
Parties have until August 14th to fill any general election vacancies on the ballot.
Cancer is the root of evil. Rest easy sir.
How sad. Praying for his family and loved ones.
Cancer is a consequence of Adam failing in his one job. To care for the Garden and all in it. And that is the root of all evil.
Just as a slight correction, my understanding is that Aug 7 is drop out deadline, while Aug 14 is replacement deadline.
I do see that. Thanks for the correction.
Sad to see for anyone and especially in the midst of a campaign no matter what party or political leanings.
Prayers to his family.
