Worthing D-Day veteran dies at the age of 102

Ted was a resident at Care for Veterans, having moved there from his home in Lancing just over a year ago. He celebrated his 102nd birthday on March 20 and died on Saturday, July 9.

James Bacharew, head of fundraising and marketing, said: “Ted quickly became a treasured member of the Care for Veterans’ family. It’s an honour to have taken care of a veteran with an illustrious career and such a fascinating story to tell.

"Ted crammed a lot into his life and that’s just what he continued to do at Care for Veterans. We feel privileged to have taken care of Ted in his 102nd year.”
