Theodore "Ted" Glenn Wall

Theodore  “Ted” Glenn Wall, 71, of Delhi, Iowa, passed away on Monday, October 30, 2023, at Marietta’s Place in Manchester, Iowa.  He was born on May 18, 1952, in Manchester, the son of William and Donna (Meader) Wall. Ted spent most of his life in Delhi. He attended school at Maquoketa Valley, where in junior high he met and courted his future wife, Kaye. He was a 1970 graduate of Maquoketa Valley High School.

Ted’s first job was at Bradco in Delhi. After his graduation, he worked Bradco pipeline, mostly in Minnesota, until service called him to the United States Army where he was stationed in Germany. While stationed there he got the opportunity to work within the Air Force in conjunction with Bradco. After his honorable discharge from the service, Ted farmed with his family and moved on to carpentry work until he was hired full time as a Rural Letter Carrier in the surrounding areas.

On September 27, 1980, Ted married Kaye Sperfslage in Earlville. They built their home doing almost everything together. He helped Kaye with various crafting projects. They also enjoyed vacationing together, as they snowmobiled or rode their motorcycles for weeks at a time.
