Ted loved his wife Bonnie, daughters, and grandchildren passionately. He also loved living on the Space Coast, his Rotary Club, and his Florida Gators. As a CPA, it was said of Ted that he treated all clients with integrity. Ted served as an officer of both the Florida Institute of CPAs and the Cocoa Beach Rotary Club. He also helped manage the Cocoa Beach Policemen’s pension fund. Ted followed all Gator sports, most especially U.F. football games which he recorded and often watched twice. Ted graduated Melbourne High early at age 16 in 1958, went to work for RCA at the Tech Lab. Ted married his teenage sweetheart Bonnie in 1963 and whisked her off to Huntsville, Alabama. There, he worked for GE and soon after transferred to Kennedy Space Center as a computer programmer rerouting circuit signal connectors. Determined to achieve a college degree, he relocated his wife and two young daughters to Gainesville to study accounting. He took a heavy course load and graduated in 3 years in 1976. Ted showed much perseverance, sitting for the CPA exam a total of 17 times to get certification. Ted was born August 3, 1941, in Tampa and lived in Micanopy, Starke, and Melbourne with his three brothers by his courageous single mom. One of Ted’s proudest moments was when he pitched a “no-hitter” shut out for the Fordyce Chevrolet Pony League baseball team. Ted is survived by his wife of 52 years, Bonnie Kirschenbaum Whiting, his daughter Tanya Whiting Button, his brother Larry and his wife Pat Whiting, brother in law Malcolm and his wife Jane Kirschenbaum, his brother in law Jack and his wife Diane Kirschenbaum, his grandchildren, nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his daughter Trina Whiting Vance. A celebration of life memorial service for Ted will be held this Saturday January 24 at 10 a.m. at the Lutheran Church of the Resurrection, 525 Minutemen Causeway, Cocoa Beach, FL. The family asks that in lieu of flowers, friends consider donations to one of three charities Ted held dear to his heart: The Rotary Foundation, the Lutheran Church of the Resurrection Cocoa Beach Food Pantry, or VITAS Hospice Community Connection of Brevard County.
