Mr. Keys had me type some script for him at my work Executive Commons where we supply office services. He presented me with a hand drawn picture of “Hazel” and a notation to thank me.

Thank you Ted Keys for the lasting memory.

So, prior to his retirement, he produced enough new material to last at least 15 years?

Wow, I remember my parents watching Hazel when I was young.

And Peabody’s Improbable History was second only Fractured Fairy Tales on my list of Bullwinkle favorites.

95! Wow. Sounds like he had a great life.

Remember liking those “Peabody” segments (‘tho I loved just about anything Jay Ward produced, with the exception of “Aesop and Son”)

Ted Key created Rocky and Bullwinkle?? I believe the characters were created by Alex Anderson and Jay Ward in Berkeley. What connection did Ted Key have to this?
