Dad is a Wonderful man, kind, generous, good heart, nice to everyone, I can’t ask for a better dad. Me and the family miss him a whole bunch! He is in a better place.
Mr. Tes was one of the nicest people I have ever met! It was an honor to know him. I know he will be missed by all.
Your Dad was always kind to me and I appreciated that. He was a wonderful man and made sure to take good care of his family and keep them safe. May God bring your family peace during this difficult time. My prayers for strength are with you all.
I have been a part of the Tes Family for 36 years. It’s difficult to say, much less put into print what kind of man he really was. He was good to his family and taught his children good values and that is proof by the way they have all grown up. He loved his wife so much that he would do anything he could for her. He had a sense of humor that was difficult to figure out unless you spent time with him. I do know that I will miss him but to know that he is at peace gives some comfort.
Mr. Tes always greeted me with a smile at every family gathering when I would see him. Not only was he a very kind person, but not many are aware of the knowledge and experiences that this man had throughout his life. I just read that he was fluent in 4 languages and also he was in attendance at the peace talks in Paris back in the 70’s. A quiet man, with a wealth of knowledge and many friends. He will be missed dearly by family and friends.
