Wow Ted was a good man always working in the midst of sickness. I remember him saying at a banquet put by the caring place “ what are you blessing me for is not this the Father ask us to do to serve others”. I never forget that.

To the Family of Ted Asprosites,
Well done my Good and Faithful Servant, Enter into the Joy of your Lord.
Matthew 25:21 (Paraphrased)
It is with deepest Sympathy to each of your that we hear of Teds passing.
I first met Ted in the late 70's when I went to work for him at Pelican Electronics.
All very good memories of my time there. Ted was all about family and he and
Eileen made everyone feel like family. Ted will for sure be missed by each of
you, but rest assured Ted is Square Dancing in heaven with the angels. May our
Lord and Savior bring each of you comfort and peace in the days ahead by knowing
that Ted is at rest in the arms of Jesus without any pain or sickness.
Blessing to each of you,
Roy & Judy Johnson

Ted is a first class person. Man of GOD. Vic and went on vacation years ago with he and wife. We were so blessed to send a week with him and his precious wife. He is now living with Jesus and GOD.

Nickie Maggio,
Sonny and I go way back to Pelican Electronics. We had a great talk recently at his sister's funeral. I met his dad when he had Pelican Electronics on Broad Street. Then later I met Sonny and his brother Butch. Sonny and I had many conversations about antenna systems at work and his house. He was a good man.

On behalf of myself and my family we want to offer our condolences at this time. Though loss is hard we know that Jesus sent His Holy Spirit to comfort us in times like these. We trust you find that comfort in these days to follow. You are loved and we recognize the impact that Teds smile, sense of humor and love has had on all those that knew him. May God bless you and your family. With great love and respect, Theresa (volunteer from Caring place) and family.

Today I am remembering our king cake parties in the 50's, a very innocent time here in New Orleans. Boys were students at St. Aloysius and girls at Dominican, St. Joseph Academy. Sonny was a favorite among us, always smiling, laughing, and kidding with the girls. He and Eileen were a beautiful couple then and that was only the beginning of an extraordinary life together. My warmest condolences to Eileen and the Asprodites family.
