Ted Anderson, 93, a one-time traveling demonstrator/salesman for Duncan Yo-Yo, died Aug. 22.
Born Theodore Merrill Anderson, he worked as a butcher in the 1950s when the Luck-based Duncan company persuaded him to promote the wooden toys. He and his wife, Grace, spent years traveling along the East Coast and Puerto Rico for Duncan, stopping in New York City and many other spots to do yo-yo tricks and promoting Duncan products.
In his later years, he moved to Orlando and worked as a greeter at Disney World, once again doing his yo-yo tricks.
Grace and Ted were married for 67 years. She died in July.
A memorial service is planned for 11 a.m. Sept. 18 at Luck Lutheran Church.
