Our love to you all,

Deepest sympathy and so much love to you, Pete, Bind and Hughie. It’s been our privilege and joy to watch Ted grow up as a boy in the love and care of such a beautiful family, and to know that he had spread his wings and was making such an impression as a young man on so many people at Kalannie (no surprise there). It pains us to have been so far away at this tragic time but we will be there in spirit via the livestream on Tuesday. Virtual hugs for now. Real ones soon. 💙💙

We didn’t have the privilege of knowing Ted, but we know Petey
You don’t need to meet someone to understand the kind of love that surrounded them. It’s clear Ted was deeply loved and meant everything to his family.
Petey, Bindi and Hue we are thinking of you.
Love Marcus and Ryan Sheridan

From everyone at the Kalannie Football Club, we extend heartfelt condolences to Ted’s family, friends and community. Ted had a wonderful energy and vibrant presence in our small town, since February this year. His commitment to fitness and football has deeply inspired our players, especially our local boys, who trained with him. His enthusiastic smile, sheer talent and energetic spirit on the Kalannie Football oval will never be forgotten.

Pete, Bindi and Hugh,
Totally devastated for your loss of Ted. The tributes online highlight how well thought of he was in each community he went to. Please know that all your friends here in Canberra and those from our school days Pete are all thinking of you and your family at this terrible time.
Platt family.June 01, 2026 2:03 pm
Bindi, Pete & Hughie. There are no words, we are absolutely rocked to the core and struggling to comprehend the passing of such a beautiful young man taken far too soon.
When an old person dies, even if that person is wonderful, they are somewhat ready to let go, and so are the people who loved them. They are like old trees, whose roots have loosened in the ground, they fall gently. But when someone young dies, someone like Ted – well before his time – the roots of his tree get pulled out and the ground is ripped up. And so everyone nearby is in danger of being knocked over.
Ted has knocked us all over and it will take time to get up. We are here for you x

Ted,
You are, and always will be, in our thoughts, our hearts, and our actions.
A remarkable human. A capable and curious member of our farming team. An inspiration to be better. A mate to all those fortunate enough to share in your smile.
We cannot put into words how much we miss you.
Thank you for being part of our lives. You will be in every sunset, every season, and every paddock we walk.
Love your Farming Team. Bob&Amanda, Sam&Tiph & boys, Issy, Stewie, Greg, Harry, Jaymon&Ash, Codey&Ellie. Kalannie, WAMay 31, 2026 11:58 am
The tributes written for Ted over these past weeks are a beautiful testimony to a well respected and loved young man.
To Pete, Bindi, Hugh, Uncle Ian, Auntie Margaret, Glenn and Jane, our deepest sympathies for the loss of your gorgeous boy. You are all in our thoughts and in our hearts. 💙
Lots of love Jenny, Pete, Jackie, Dion, Jas, Fox and the Newnham families xxxx
