This Guestbook has been created as a tribute to
I am sorry to learn of Ted's passing. Before he and Betty were clients, I got to know Ted at the CCB where we were both regular members. I always enjoyed talking with him, esp. about the Berlin airlift and other flying topics - about which I know little. My condolences to all the family. I have you in my thoughts. My condolences to your family, I never met your father, but heard enough about him thru Mike that I know he was one great guy. Our condolences to Debbie, Linda and Mike; Andy, John and Steve; and all the grandchildren. Ted's legendary devotion to Betty remains fixed in our memories. And what a skier! OUR SINCERE CONDOLENCES ON YOUR LOSS. Lt Harris was a member or our Bomb Group and serverd with distinction. We are sorry to hear of his loss. We hope you will reach out to us to fill in you your Dad's History. Very Little is known about this crew that flew 35 missions during some harrowing times. My father, Stanley Russell, was Ted's navigator in WWII. Growing up, I knew that Ted Harris was in my family's pantheon of heros along with Abraham Lincoln and Errol Flynn. When my father died, I reflected a great deal upon his life and was surprised to find myself particularly interested in the combat experience he shared with Ted and the rest of the crew of Milk Run Mabel, something he rarely talked about. About 18 years ago, it was my pleasure to meet Ted, and introduce him to my young son. Ted was and will always be one of my central heros. Nancy and I send our condolences to the family.
