Popular Newsvine Member Tedd Riggs Dies
I just discovered this posted on facebook by Athikea Digiteas a/k/a ' Digits '. Anyone that knew Tedd, knows he was a great guy. He never gave anyone a hard time and was great to correspond with.
I recall he was out for a while because of brain surgery. I can only speculate he may have been suffering from brain cancer.
Tedd was a avid sports sailor and enjoyed life to the fullest. I'm sure he will be missed by all that knew him. I know I was very saddened by this news.

Funny I was thinking about Tedd recently (weird), I sent him a message via Newsvine IM suggesting he join us at NewsTalkers. Now I know why he didn't respond.
Jerry,
Did he have a separate screen name? I don't recall him from Newsvine, but I knew very few people there by their real names.
I, too, am very saddened by this news. He was a great guy, and I hope that he didn't suffer!
My prayers are with his friends and family!
Tedd used his real name.

NV is very big and it's not unusual for some people who were there at the same time never crossed paths with one another.
It also may depend on when you were active there. Riggs was out for quite awhile as a result of major surgery.
RIP Tedd. I did run across him on NV, and he was always one of the ''good guys''.
Yeah he was. I don't recall ever seeing Tedd in a heated discussion. If hedisagreedwith you he would doso with calm reason.
