Charles Allen Teilborg 74 years old of
Spokane, Washington, passed away surrounded by family on November 24, 2025. Born on February 9, 1951, to Louise and Richard Teilborg in Denver, Colorado. He was a dedicated husband to Kathleen Teilborg (Rand) and Loving Dad to Isaac, Meggan, Logan, Taylor, and Lark.
He was a hardworking man, first creating and selling jewelry for a couple years out of the local mall, followed by a successful 30+ years of self-employment creating and manufacturing all types of plastic parts. He had a very creative mind. This was evident in his inventing, patenting, and production of multiple products. He proudly served his country during Vietnam providing veterinary care with the Air National Guard, receiving an honorable discharge.
He loved to teach his kids the art of plastic manufacturing, farming, and how to provide veterinary care to the animals. He was an example for his kids to learn honesty, integrity, perseverance and procrastination. He was always happy to sit and visit with people, making them feel important. He loved to hear what new hobbies his kids and grandkids were into, making them feel like it was the most important thing to hear. But above all he always showed us how to find laughter in every situation.
