My prayers and condolences to the McTeer family. Dr. McTeer and I knew each other while I was a student and later became an employee of the Medical University of SC, College of Dental Medicine. He was a determined, confident and kind man who never lost sight of his purpose. He will be sadly missed and forever respected.

George was guide at my orientation with other freshmen at South Carolina State College. He was impressive in giving us the best the university had and offering his help in making us feel welcome and at home. He instilled hope in beginning college and getting rid of any fears in college away from home. My he rest in peace and sympathies to the family.

My wife and I are simply heartbroken to learn of the passing of my Brother-in-Law. George was a godly gentleman, a true friend, and a wonderful family man; including his extended family, all of whom loved him dearly and will carry him in our hearts. George was a man among men.

We were deeply saddened to learn of the loss of our dear friend and colleague, Dr. McTeer. His kindness and friendly demeanor will be greatly missed. He was a quite leader who opened the door "widely" for those who chose to follow.
Much love to Norma and family.
