Mr. Theodore "Ted" Wilson
Mcmillan Age 68 Of Keystone Heights
Oct 3, 1956 — Aug 22, 2025
On August 22nd, 2025, a husband, father, brother, uncle and friend was stolen from us. This spice of life "Ted" Theodore Wilson McMillan began October 3rd 1956. Born in Bristol, Pennsylvania (which explains to many his die hard love for Philly sports teams) to Patricia and Ronald McMillan. He began many adventures with his siblings Ronnie, Karen & Brett. Amongst those adventures and in his youth he was a baseball pitcher, which brought scouts to be interested in him. Moving from PA to Wisconsin (this also explains his love for cheese) and finally landing in Columbus, NJ. This is where he met his high school sweetheart and love of his life Cherie whom he married in 1978.
Soon after he would start working at McMaster-Carr and welcome his daughter Teddilee. He would continue as a faithful employee, missing only a handful of days in 30 years until his retirement in 2010 at 54 years old. He would make lifelong friends there and continue to the rest of his life. His next years in Westampton, NJ contained family beach vacations, endless motorcycle outings, billiards, karate, pool days, going out to eat, making his famous mac-n-cheese, drinks, block parties, working out, holiday dinners, snowmobiling but "The beeping snow", a million laughs, love and a fun filled stint on Thames Lane they moved to the sunshine state in Keystone Heights, FL July 2023 and absolutely loved it.
Ted, Theo, dad loved to be with his wife, daughter & family, riding his motorcycle, spending time with his friends, playing the lottery, being in the sun, enjoying a good series/movie, sports games, animals, french-fries/tater tots wings with blue cheese, beer of course and just to have a damn good time! The life of the party moves on to the next chapter leaving behind his loving family, wife Cherie, dog Shelby (who is missing his nightly singing of Tom Jones to her), daughter Teddilee, son-in-law Rob Carter, brother Ronnie, (Judi), sister Karen McKinster, brother Brett McMillan, brother-in-law David Winzinger, father-in-law Henry Winzinger (Donna), nephews, nieces, countless friends and many brothers from another. As usual we couldn't keep up with him so he went ahead of us to get it going and we're sure when he got there he said "Now it's a party!" We love you so much and will deeply miss you until we see you again…. And remember Ted would tell you "It's all good!"
