I remember how Teeno always treated me good and how I was invited to be with him and his friends. I always admired his directness, his honesty and most of all I enjoyed his company, his humor and the way he looked at life. He was a good man who will be missed by all those who were lucky enough to know him. Rest in peace my friend.

Teeno was a great friend, father-in-law and Grandpa to my Son Trent Reed. He will always be remembered to me as a father figure. We enjoyed some 40 years as great friends even after I re-married. Some of my greatest memories of Teeno was having cook-outs with him and the McGinn's, and remembering his love for the White Sox. One thing I admired about Teeno he always said it like it was even if you didn't want to hear it! ! For now my friend until we meet again, you will truly be missed.

Teeno was a great friend to me over the years. He delivered trucks for Kenyon-Foley Ford for many years as a retirement job and was always ready to go. "You call, we haul" is what he would say when asked if he was available. RIP old friend.

Teeno was my Uncle Dick's right hand man on the job, and good friend off. I started going to White Sox games with him as a young boy, and continued that into my adulthood. He was a great guy that I will always remember fondly.

Teeno was one of my Dad's best friends. I spent a lot of my youth going to White Sox games with Teeno and my Dad. There were lots of laughs over the years then and at cookouts at my cousin Jack McGinn's farm near Edelstein. My deepest sympathies to Craig, Terri and Todd and all of their families. He will be missed. Mike Ratcliff
