CHAPTER ETERNAL
Ted A. Sharp '70 entered Chapter Eternal
on March 20. As a CPA, he worked in public
accounting for several years, later moving
to private industry. Ted was an avid skier.
Racquetball and golf soon followed as favorite
pastimes. Ted and his wife, Marilyn, loved their
early marriage treks following history through
central Europe, Russia, and the U.S. They also
enjoyed vacations to any sunny island, where
they enjoyed snorkeling, sunshine, and spending
time with friends. Ted is survived by his wife,
daughter, Sarah, seven nieces and nephews, and
14 great-nieces and nephews, all of whom he
loved dearly.
