Bruce Theodore “Ted” Hudson, 68, of Chatham, Virginia passed
away on January 19, 2019 from widespread cancer that was only recently
diagnosed. Ted was a graduate of E.C.
Glass High School and Virginia Western Community College. He proudly served in the U.S. Navy from
1968-1974. Though he primarily worked in
electronics and engineering, his favorite pursuits were woodworking, playing
guitar and preparing delicious food for the people he loved. Ted wrote songs, created recipes and crafted
everything from china cabinets to dining sets.
There was nothing he couldn’t build, repair or design. Ted became a friend to everyone he met and
could hold an enjoyable conversation with any person of any age from any walk
of life. If you knew him, your life was
the richer for it. Beyond all else,
Ted’s greatest passion was making memories with his family, whether it was
outdoor movie nights with fire pits, fishing off the boat on the lake, or
throwing the Frisbee on the beach. He
knew how to have a good time and was always teaching all of us to do the same.
Ted is survived by his treasured wife, Janet; his beloved
children, Stephanie (Jeff) Moran of Chattanooga, Tennessee, Heather (Jeff) Little
of Raleigh, North Carolina, Jeremy (Lauren) Cox of Richmond, Virginia and Gabe
Hudson of Washington, D.C; his twelve cherished grandchildren: Jacob Little,
Morgan Little, Natalie Little, Nora Cox, James Cox, Colin Moran, Ethan Moran,
Nicholas Moran, Eli Moran, Olivia Moran, Clare Moran and Zeke Moran; his two
precious sisters, Carol (Roger) St. Clair of Shawsville, VA and Ginger Hartless
of Front Royal, Virginia; and many dear nieces and nephews. Heaven’s gain is our great loss.
Visitation with the family will be held from 5:00-7:00 pm on
Monday, January 21, 2019 at the Maberry Funeral Home Chapel in Floyd, Virginia and
funeral service will be 11:00 am on Tuesday, January 22, 2019 at the
same location. Burial will follow at the
family (William Quesenberry) cemetery on Shady Grove Road in Indian Valley.
