In addition to Jim's extensive family, he is survived by the amazing friends he made though his time at St. George, Cathedral Prep, Gannon, and beyond.
Jim was a loving father, husband, brother, and friend. He spent many of his free hours coaching his daughters' swim and tennis teams. He touched the hearts of all who had the joy of knowing and loving him. He lit up every room he walked into and was appreciated throughout the community for his leadership and humanity. He always knew how to make someone laugh; people wanted to be around him.
He was an avid fan of tennis and played for Gannon University after graduating from Cathedral Preparatory School (Class of '87). In his free time, Jim loved playing bocce, running, golfing, traveling, and spending time with his family.

Jim was a great man who I got to know many years ago playing tennis at Gannon. He was always relaxed, helpful and an inspiration then and over the year. He will be missed.

I was just shocked to hear about Jim's passing. He was just the kindness person. He would come to his mom's doctor appointment's and was always so sweet to her and to our staff. Then we had the pleasure of seeing him often as he became one of our FAVORITE drug reps. His wife is also just as sweet and always has been. They make they PERFECT couple. My heart goes out to Jeannine and his girls. We truly lost a wonderful person and heaven has gained one.

I haven´t seen him in a while, but when my siblings and I were much younger, there was no doubt that Jim Teed was a force to be reckoned with both on the swim team and tennis team. He was always so friendly, crazy athletic and so family-oriented. I´m so sorry I can´t be there today to personally offer my condolences. But I´m sending lots of prayers your way.

My heart aches with the grief of your family, Teeds! I have fond memories of Jim as a teammate on the swim team, playing tennis ladders, and golf rounds at Kahkwa Club. He was a kind and funny soul. May his memories be a blessing for all those who know him! With condolences, Wiley Reed

RIP Jim. We started in kindergarten and reconnected over struggles with accounting class at Gannon, then ordinations. Gone suddenly like his father, whose passing so many vividly remember, this is still a shock. The best of St. George, Prep, and Gannon. Peace to the many who grieve his loss, especially his family.
