Theodore S. Valpey Jr., 90, of Dover, NH and formerly of Holliston, MA passed away at his home surrounded by his family on Saturday, February 11, 2023. Born in Laconia, NH, he was the son of the late Dorothea (Rines) and Theodore S. Valpey Sr.

While working, he attended night school for 10 years to obtain his business management degree from Northeastern University. He went on to hold leadership roles at several public companies, including Framingham Trust, Valtec, Matec, Valpey-Fisher, and Metrowest Bank. Ted was also active in the community and generously supported a variety of non-profit organizations and local clubs. His hobbies included boating and antique trucks. He enjoyed hosting friends and family on his beloved boat, “Sunstone”, and he loved attending and hosting antique truck shows at Bayview Farm with his many friends. Most importantly, he loved his family, especially his children and grandchildren.

Ted is survived by his children, Ted Valpey III and his wife, Debbie of Holliston, MA; Sue Chick and her husband, Steve of Meredith, NH; Sandy Cordts and her husband, Alan of Falmouth, MA; John Valpey and his wife, Susan of Concord, MA; Jessie Evers and her husband, Greg of Medway, MA; step-daughter Jennifer Greymont and her husband, Alfred of New Durham, NH; and step-daughter-in-law Gladys Walsh of Needham, MA.
