ENGLEWOOD, COLO. — Wade Tefft leafs through the pictures he keeps in a gold envelope. They are sweet memories, pictures of his mother, Laura, who has since passed away, standing shoulder to shoulder with Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning. They were taken just months after Tefft’s parents, who lived on Indy’s Far Northside, were victimized by a criminal who killed Tefft’s father, Thomas, and stole the family car.
“This ruthless animal who broke into our home and killed my dad is one end of the human spectrum,” Tefft said as he sat at a desk at Mayo Aviation in suburban Englewood. “And then there are people like Peyton Manning who are kind-hearted and giving, and we have to remember that in times of tragedy.
“There’s goodness and kindness in the world.”
