Ted Norris

Ted Norris and I were natural friends, almost without trying. His passing has left a hole in my heart and I suspect the grief will last quite a while. Both of us grew up in East Texas, so his big energy was familiar to me. We were both in healing professions; his medicine and mine clinical psychology, so we often had a lot to talk about. I was super sad the last time I saw him, to see such a friend disappear before my eyes. Ted was brilliant, crazy, fun, and in love with life. We laughed loud and often. I honestly don't know that I could ever have a buddy like him again. Ted was one of a kind and they threw away the mold after he was born.
