John C. Teeters

Everything I have said earlier still holds true. We will always miss our loved ones even though we know they have gone on to a better place.

Everything we wrote at the time still holds true. John and Lilly have both gone on to their better life, but we miss them and always will. I can remember after Carolyn was born, she was in a high chair with all three of their children's names on it. Lilly always had the food and she would sit ice cream and bottles of Root Beer on the table for us to make floats all through dinner. Lilly's mother taught her well how to cook. She would always be at the kitchen stove when we would stop by. ...

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Most of my generation grew up around most of John's generation. We all went so many places together and visited together so much.

Usually, relatives do not send Sympathy Cards, since they are suffering the loss too, but I have memories I want to put here.

My parents have told me so many times about going with John and Lilly to be witnesses for their marriage. It was actually in Kimball, Nebraska. They all laughed because Lilly wanted to go to Gering, Nebraska, but she decided against that one when they got there. Next they went to Harrisburg, Nebraska, but when a milk cow was grazing on the lawn of the...

i was the former girlfriend to John and Lilly's son Tom..who passed away. Precious memories flood over me of times in their home..going to meeting with them and the huge farmhouse breakfasts that Lilly would fix..riding in the dune buggy out in the fields chasing coons with the dog named ole blue. how John always treated me like royalty. I loved that man..Loved what made his Spirit ..once on a really hot day he took me fishing..he was a fantastic fisherman..that's the day we thought we...

Our thoughts are with your family at this time. John and Lily were so good to my boys when I first moved to Torrington. He kept them busy working for and with him. It helped to use up surplus energy, plus they learned how to work. They always enjoyed Lily's cooking when they worked for John - that was probably the best part! John will be missed but he has something better to go on to.
Thinking of you,

Forrest and Lillian Nelson

Kind memories of John fill my thought and care to the family. We think of you with gentle kindness at this time. May your needs and lost be met with every kind thought and gentle fulfillment.

Good memories come my way when I think of days long ago with John and Lilly. A major part of my growing up years...
Dad - Charlie Hunnel - worked for Teeters and I would go with John to check the cattle ... I think the first time I ever drove - I must have been four... - I sat on Johns lap as he checked the cattle on the ranch near where Joel lived.
I remember going to their house near Lingle while Mom and Dad were working on our house near Morrill and Lilly had made...
