  34. Jeff Fioravanti on May 14, 2020 at 10:36 am

    I was very saddened to learn of Jim’s passing. He and I graduated from Saugus HS together. He was a kind soul, a good person, intelligent and just an honest hard working individual. I remember fondly many times during our high school and college years times spent at his house with several other classmates, playing cards and have some great conversations. The world needs more Jim Tedders. My condolences to his family and friends. While life brings waters to our shores, some things remain and root and others return to the sea. Life saw us drift apart over time, but I know that I, and we are all better for having known him. RIP Jim!
