It's very difficult to talk solely about Ted without talking about Bud, because they were one. They were the classiest, fun-loving brothers in high school who had a dream, created it and then lived it. They turned what I called work into fun by experiencing their “work” and then relating this, plus a true knowledge of their products, into a very successful business. People wanted to buy from them because they were the Burger brothers, AND it was just so cool that they were identical twins. I distinctly remember once getting on a plane with them and I turned right and without making it a big deal they turned left. I asked them where they were going and they said to Remington (?) headquarters because they were their biggest dealer of the year and were going to get their awards. After years of success they sold their business and continued to live their dream, but not for long enough. It happens so very often that when a couple is married for a long time, and one passes, then the other is soon to follow. So like Hosie said to me, Ted is now with is with Kathy (Friedheim). We will all really miss you Ted and my deepest sympathies to you Bud and Jan. Doug Jensen

I met the Burger  brothers in 4th grade and became friends throughout the years.  The last time that we saw each other regularly was at St. Cloud State.  They were corvette lovers and if I wanted to hitch a ride home with them Buddy had to sit on the center console to make room for me..  They were so identical that the only way I could tell them apart was Buddy had a dead front tooth which was quite noticable  Fond memories.  Charlie Blekre
