Your presence may be gone, but your kindness, strength, and love will live in our hearts forever.
Theodore Ryan Hilbert, 71, of Tucson, AZ, passed away peacefully on March 9, 2025, surrounded by the love of his family.
Ted was born to Harold and Lorraine Hilbert on July 2, 1953, in Jamestown, NY. A devoted husband, father, and grandfather, he was known for his kindness, sense of humor, and unwavering dedication to his family. Ted’s life revolved around his wife, children, and grandchildren, whom he cherished deeply.
He built a successful plumbing business, had a passion for classic cars, and found joy in the company of those he loved. His storytelling, warmth, and infectious laughter brought happiness to all who knew him. Above all, Ted’s love for his family was immense, and his presence will be profoundly missed. He leaves behind a legacy of love, strength, and cherished memories that will live on forever.
He is survived by his wife, Susan; his daughter, Stephanie; his son, Ryan; his grandchildren, Robby, Ethan, and Jaxon; and his siblings, Wayne, Dan, Tim, Linda, and Jeff, all of whom will forever hold him in their hearts.
Though Ted requested no formal services, those who knew and loved him will honor his life through shared stories and the love he gave so freely. His spirit lives on in the lives he touched, and he will never be forgotten.
