R.I.P LOVE YA
I only discovered Teddy 5 years ago. I have loved his solo work ever since and think he touched the hearts of women in a way not many men cannot.
I was so sorry to learn of his private life and his accident. But what great courage and strength he showed, going on to sing and to fall in love with his wife. He became MORE loved because of how he succeeded against the odds.
Teddy will be remembered for his amazing voice and songs, but most of all for the man he showed himself to be in overcoming and battling personal tragedy. He never gave up and still was able to find and give joy to life. He has added much joy to my life as well as so many others.
What an inspiration to the human race!
Much love to Teddy and his family and friends and anyone else lucky enough to have know him.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I’ve loved TP since he sang with Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes. When he went solo, I was probably one of the first people to buy his first solo album in 1977, which I still have to this day. Teddy was truly one of the greats, along with Luther Vandross and Whitney Houston…at least in my book. His music was fabulous and made women feel sooooooo good!!!
Thank you, Teddy, for sharing your talent with us…you are now reunited with Luther and Whitney on the other side, so keep on making that amazing music!!!! RIP
