Ted Radde obit in Tri-City Record today

 THEODORE RADDE

Theodore Radde of Greeneville, TN (formerly of St. Joseph, MI) passed away Tuesday, March 8, 2022 in Johnson City, TN at the age of 77. Ted was born March 31, 1944 to Louis C. and Theodora (Mackus) Radde of St. Joseph.

In the early 1970s he owned a Texaco service station in Watervliet with his dad and brother. He later worked at Modar and Alreco Metals before starting T&S Auto Care where he did auto body repair and painting. In 1995 he moved to Las Vegas, NV where he worked doing armed security. In 2013 he and his wife Darlene retired to Greeneville, TN where they made their home. 

Ted is survived by his wife Darlene (Chwierut) Radde; children, Scott (Camille) Radde, Michael (Jeff) Radde, Melanie (Ted) Marvin, Rick (Jennifer) Radde and step-son Christopher Gorski; sister, Elizabeth (Guy) Arrans; eleven grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews, and cousins Carl Radde and Sallyanne (Chuck) Crumley.

He was preceded in death by his parents and his brother Terry Radde.

Memorial contributions can be made to the Greene County, TN Humane Society. There will be no formal services.

Here are larger versions of the photos:

Family History Miscellaneous album

 

1. Mildred Hicks, Cleffie Burford, Evalee Jones 1940 (expecting Junior, Bob, and Buck)

2. Family picnic. Not sure of exactly who they all are. I think the girl on the far left is Wathada. The woman kneeling on the ground on the right is Annie, and the tall man in the hat is Ulys. Among the children are for sure Ronnie and Beverly, Buck and Bob -- not quite sure of the others. Pretty sure Vernell is sitting on the ground, and that might be Ray sitting near her, so two of the children in front of them might be Carl Ray and Velda. So... of the women standing, one must surely be Cleffie, and one Evalee (because their children are in the picture). The man bent over at the far right might be Charles Jones...? That doesn't account for everyone in the photo, but it's as close as I can come.

3. Annie Hicks, center, and her six daughters. L-R: Bernice, Vernell, Evalee, Cleffie, Irene, Ruby.

4. Charles and Evalee, Beverly and Buck, with Ulys and Annie, 1948.

5. Some of Ulys and Annie's grandchildren. (Let's see if I can remember what it took a team effort to figure out...) Back L-R: Velma Lee, June, Wathada holding Russell, Oma Dell, Morris, Buck, Betty Ruth. Front L-R: Carl Ray, Clint, Ron, Shelby, Mary Gail, Bob, Velda, Bobbie Rene, Beverly, Chuck, Jeannie. This would have been 1951.

6. L-R: Vernell, Cleffie, Olan, Ulys, Lowell, Annie, Irene, Ruby, Bernice, Evalee. (This is all the siblings except Elvin.)

7. Christmas 1950: Jack, Charles, Lester, Ray, Jay, Olan, Lowell.

8. Ronnie, Annie, Beverly. Hidden in the bushes behind them - Buck, Wathada, Bob.

9. Ruby (left) and Evalee (right). Evalee is holding Wathada. I'm not sure who the baby is that Ruby is holding, but I think it might be Velma Lee because she is the same age as Wathada. The other children, left to right, are Oma Dell, Vernell, Olan, Lowell, and Bernice. This would have been around 1936.

Family History Miscellaneous album

 

This album - Family History Miscellaneous - actually no longer exists in hard copy. This page is from the original scan I did of the album before I re-organized the albums. I'm going to go ahead and post it, though, because it will provide a little more variety among the various branches of the family tree.

Key:

1. Cleffie Hicks and cousin Sylvia Arnold

2. Clint, Jeannie, and Chuck Hicks, children of Olan and Barbara Hicks

3. Destruction from the tornado in Judsonia, Arkansas, in 1952

4. Lena Carter, daughter of George Thomas Carter

5. Annie Arnold Hicks with cow

6. Destruction from Judsonia tornado

7. Annie Arnold Hicks

8. Katie and Kevin Siggins, grandchildren of Della and Otho Simeon Ford (on the Thomas branch of the family tree)

The last two pictures might have been taken at the Hicks family reunion in 1988, but I'm not sure.

This is the last of the reunion pictures. Tomorrow I'll start another one of my albums, but I haven't decided which one yet.
