Edward (Ted) Joseph Gross passed away with family at his side on July 26th, 2024 (Born December 22, 1940). He was predeceased by his daughter, Deborah. He leaves to mourn Bernice, his wife of 62 years, and sons Darrin and James (Joanne), Nick and Shelagh Polishchuk as well as his grandchildren – Craig (Lauren), Andrea (Stacey), Lara, Marina, Sara and Megan.

Ted was a self-employed entrepreneur designing and testing many new products (often on the family’s kitchen stove, much to Bernice’s chagrin). Ted entered one of Sundawn’s many new products in a North American automotive parts show in the Las Vegas and placed 2nd of 600 entries.

Forever curious about all things – Ted loved learning new skills, meeting new people, and discussing politics with anyone willing to share their views and listen to his. Oh, and he had a passion for auctions!

Ted and Bernice had spent many years traveling to Mexico and enjoying the company of fellow snowbirds and local culture.

Above all, Ted loved his family. His eyes would twinkle, and his face would light up every time he spoke of us. He has left us with so many beautiful memories. We have been truly blessed to have known him.

A Come & Go Celebration of Life will take place on Monday August 5th, 2024, 1-3 pm at Carman Active Living Centre – 47 Kings Rd, Carman, MB.
