Theodore (Ted) G. Schmelzle left this Earthly life to be with his Lord and Savior on Dec. 16, 2020 in his home in Ogdensburg, surrounded by his family. Ted was the only child of the late Maynard and Helen (Williams) Schmelzle. He lived in Ogdensburg for most of his life, save two years in Louisiana when he served his country as a drill sergeant for the U.S. Army. He graduated from Canton High School in 1953. He married his high school sweetheart, Norma Jean, on Christmas Eve of 1955 and they were married nearly 65 years.
Ted loved his family, his church and his farm. His time with Norma, his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren brought him so much joy. His sense of humor and love for each one never left him. As he grew older, he enjoyed sitting on the front porch of his home and sharing stories of his early years growing up in Ogdensburg and his time in the service.
